DENVER (AP) - A 19-year-old suburban Denver woman who tried to go to Syria to help Islamic State militants has been sentenced to four years in prison.

Shannon Conley learned her punishment in Denver federal court on Friday as her parents watched.

She wore a black and tan headscarf with her jail uniform.

Conley pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization in September under a deal that requires her to divulge information she may have about other Americans with similar intentions.

FBI agents say Conley wanted to marry a suitor she met online who told her he was fighting with the extremists. She repeatedly told them she wanted to fight alongside him or use her skills as a nurse’s aide to help.

In a state prison she would but she’s going to do at least 85% of the sentence in a fed slammer, that’s unless The Won pardons her which is a possibility.

By all accounts she was a nice girl and a bright student.

I doubt it.

Sounds like she is a blooming idiot with a poor moral code.

How many years will the Sunni-In-Chief get for releasing terrorists from Guantanamo?

How come no law enforcement officers have arrested him yet?
