An Arvada woman charged with aiding a foreign terrorist organization has agreed to change her plea to guilty.
Conley, 19, is charged with conspiracy to provide support to ISIS, or Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. U.S. Department of Justice spokesman Jeff Dorschner said in a statement released Monday morning that a plea hearing has yet to be scheduled in the case.
Court documents claim Conley joined the Army Explorers to be trained in U.S. military tactics and firearms, and that she told the FBI she wanted to wage Jihad and to go overseas and fight.
She attended middle school in Loveland, then Arvada West High School before transferring to Ralston Valley then back to Arvada West.
Conley was first picked up on the FBI’s radar at the Faith Bible Chapel in Arvada where she was wearing Islamic garb. She told investigators, “If they think I’m a terrorist, I’ll give them something to think I am.”
She also had a number of CDs and DVDs labeled “Anwar Al-Awlaki” that were recovered. Al-Awlaki was the Colorado educated terror suspect assassinated by a U.S. drone missile in Yemen.
According to a criminal complaint, Conley’s parents told the FBI they failed to talk their daughter out of her plans. Conley was living with her parents in their Arvada home.
The FBI also tried repeatedly to talk her out of going but arrested her earlier this year at Denver International Airport with a ticket to Turkey.
Details of the agreement were not part of the court filing. Deals cannot be disclosed until a change of plea hearing, according to Dorschner.
I live in tampa and we certainly have em.
What will the US authorities do when they catch a returning American ISIS fighter with blood on his hands?
My suggestion is to turn them over to the Kurds.
Too bad that the old Tampa “familias” aren’t around to take care of the problem.
Used to be that the worst pests in Tampa were the water roaches. Now the crazies have taken that over.
Obama will give that person a cabinet position or put them in the Pentagon.
