Who Is Alan Roberts, the Director of 'Innocence of Muslims'? We Think His Real Name Is Robert Browne

From the article:

Early yesterday morning VICE was anonymously furnished with documents that link a California resident man named Robert Brownell (aka Robert Brown)— to the pre-production of Innocence of Muslims, the F-grade anti-Islamic film that has resulted in the killing of US ambassador Christian J. Stevens in Benghazi, Libya, and widespread protests in the region, as well as violent protest at and around the US embassies in Sanna, Yemen and Cairo, Egypt. He is a man who has, as of yet, not been named in association with the film.

The documents clearly state that in 2009 and 2011 Robert Brownell purchased pre-production services related to Desert Warrior, which has been widely reported as the working title of the film that the world now tragically knows as The Innocence of Muslims. A second card issued to Robert Brown was used to purchase additional services from the same company.

The documents also include Robert Brownell’s address in Tarzana, California, (or at least his address when the purchases were made in 2009; it’s now up for sale), phone number, and “contact information,” which lists yet a different name—Alan Roberts.The documents also include Robert Brownell’s address in Tarzana, California, (or at least his address when the purchases were made in 2009; it’s now up for sale), phone number, and “contact information,” which lists yet a different name—Alan Roberts.
