A US woman who allegedly called herself “Jihad Jane” has pleaded guilty in Pennsylvania to involvement in an overseas terrorism plot.
\nColleen LaRose conspired with Islamists and pledged to murder in the name of a Muslim holy war, prosecutors say.
\nThe 46-year-old was indicted as part of an investigation into an alleged plot to kill a Swedish cartoonist who drew pictures of the Prophet Muhammad.
\nShe was arrested in October 2009 in Philadelphia.
\n“Today’s guilty plea, by a woman from suburban America who plotted with others to commit murder overseas and to provide material support to terrorists, underscores the evolving nature of the threat we face,” said David Kris, assistant attorney general for national security.
\n‘Support to terrorists’<\/strong>
\nLaRose has a co-defendant, Jamie Paulin-Ramirez of Colorado, who has pleaded not guilty since she was arrested in Ireland with other terror suspects.
\nThe indictment was part of an international investigation into an alleged plot to kill Swedish cartoonist Lars Vilks, who drew the Prophet Muhammad with the body of a dog.
\nAccording to the charge-sheet, LaRose plotted to “provide material support to terrorists”, seeking both male and female recruits and raising money.
\nLaRose and co-conspirators used the internet to establish relationships with one another and to communicate regarding their plans, according to court documents.
\nThese included martyring themselves, soliciting funds for terrorists, soliciting passports and avoiding travel restrictions in order to wage violent jihad, the justice department said.
\nLaRose was also accused of stealing another individual’s US passport and transferring it in an effort to facilitate an act of international terrorism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
