There are times when I look at my posts and say to myself, "Darn, that was pretty harsh." and I do have occasional concerns for family and friends who might be reading about loved ones. They also have a responsibility to assist their child in being a patriot dedicated to the wellbeing of her own country.
In this particular case I've become more and more convinced that Jill Carroll was intimately involved in these machinations. The fact that a translator was killed would make it truly disgusting that she could be hiding information. You're right in that we'll have to wait for all the facts to be uncovered...it is just that more and more evidence is identifying her as actually being a component of this whole mess, rather than a victim.

Parent can do all they can to raise a kid right and still have a disaster. Parents also make their own mistakes. There are so many judgement calls.
It may not have all sunk in. She may not have known the translator was killed. I'm sure they told her only what they wanted her to know. There was probably a lot of confusion when she was taken. If she was in on it, she probably didn't count on anyone being killed. In the long run, she will have to pay for all her mistakes. The timing is God's, not ours.
