She tried to trade in her pom-poms for suicide bombs.
Former Mississippi State chemistry major Jaelyn Young – who had been a high school cheerleader, honor student and homecoming maid – pleaded guilty in federal court Tuesday to one count of conspiring to provide material support to ISIS. She’ll be sentenced at a later date.

I'm at a loss. I saw this headline a day or so ago and didn't read it. Now, I'm sad to have read it.

I was under the impression that she was the driving force and the boyfriend went along with whatever she said.

"But far from a case of a love-stricken young girl following her beau to a Middle Eastern fantasy, Young agrees with prosecutors who say she was the primary driver of the intended move to Syria and continually prodded Dakhlalla to speed up their passport approval so they could leave."

Most everyone in Starkville likes the Imam and his family and were shocked that the son was involved.

She'll be treated better there than she would have been if they'd been successful in getting to Syria.

What kind of sentence are they looking at? Hopefully a long time in prison.

She either needs to be in a mental institution or they need to ship her *** to Syria and let her do what she wants. Jail is either too cruel or too lenient depending on whether she has a debilitating mental health condition.

per someone I'm close with that went to high school with her, she was the one that convinced him to get involved.

That makes it even crazier. Can you give any more insight on her situation?

Her potential to be a successful and influential African American just makes her current situation just that much more tragic.

Intelligent and beautiful, in college majoring in Chemistry, Father a Police Officer and retired Navy man---how many advantages in life did she need? Well she had them, and she could have taken any number of "wrong turns" in college, experimented with drugs / binge drinking / sexual promiscuity / academic cheating. Any of those choices would have been bad but could be overcome. Tragically she took the "wrongest" "wrong turn" of them all---treason and conspiring to join enemy combatants in Syria.

In before the lock: Years and years of being told, by fellow Americans, that America is bad and evil and a bully and that the world would be a better place if we just didn't do anything outside of America.

Add a dose of teenage rebellion against authority and that's pretty much it.

Could be as much as 20 years...doubt if she does any time, probably a fine and lifetime probation. I hope she gets all 20 years and more

I think that is the case in most men joining isis based on a report I read. Apparently they are recruiting females hard so that they will recruit young men for them.

Serving no time? Are you 17ing serious? Trying to join Isis should get you solitary confinement for about 40 years minimum.

This ain't some small time state or county court. The Feds don't screw around. Especially when it comes to stuff like this. She'll be damn lucky to be out before she's 30.

Yes, let the punishment fit the crime. MAKE her go to the middle east and join ISIS, and don't let her ever come back.

The penalty for Treason used to be Death.

She probably gets around a 10 year sentence, but the fact that she confessed could help her lawyer work it down to 5-7 years in prison.

Some people are just nuts, MSU grad or not. It doesn't make me sad, but it does astound me how vulnerable some can be to just a crazy outside influence. I don't feel sorry for her at all. She knew full well what she was doing.

The best punishment would be to let them go. They would both be raped so many times in the first week they would never be able to go number 2 again. After being raped relentlessly and used slaves for few months, they would likely both be killed or commit sideways.

Hail, Islamic State.
Fight for Arabia today.
Hit your wives, and tote the bomb.
Cross the goal, before you 'splode.
And we'll yell, yell, yell, yell,
For Islamic State we'll yell like BALALALALALALALALALA!

The proxy war between the Saudi's and Iranians has been going on for a long

Time now and ISIS is just the latest version. I'm about ready for those 17ers to man up and take
Each other on and let's get things settled. Israel is a side note to the hatred between those two and the collateral damage it causes.

This picture accurately describes . . . . .

what the culture is like among these people. The picture is of a group traveling to a European country hopeful of immigration. Notice all the men have shoes while the woman doesn't. She is carrying two children, yet none of the men offer to help. In essence, women have little value except to serve the men. It's unfortunate the former MSU female did not get to make her trip.

Can't see the pic but I agree she would have been in for a rude awakening had

she made the trip. Hard to understand but hey, a large percentage of the younger generation seems to be prepared to vote for Bernie Sanders.

Were you a fan of the Greenbean "Mother of All Coffees" by chance? Black coffee mixed with 3 shots of espresso if I'm not mistaken. Highlight of Kuwait for me.
