In an effort to get to know the man behind the pseudonym "Sam Bacile," CNN's Miguel Marquez traveled to the suburban Cerritos, California home reported to be his. Bacile, you'll recall, was the name early reports had for the man behind an English-language anti-Muslim film that may have sparked much of the riots and protests sprouting around North Africa and the Middle East this week, but has since been discovered as being one of several aliases that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula has used over the years.
