Prosecutors Want "Jihad Jane" Behind Bars For Decades, Despite Her Cooperation

Played a role in plot to kill Swedish cartoonist

(Reuters)—The Pennsylvania woman who called herself Jihad Jane and a teenage accomplice from Maryland provided "very significant" assistance to U.S. authorities in several terrorism investigations but still remains a threat to the public, prosecutors say in new court filings.

Prosecutors said Colleen LaRose, 50, should be sentenced to "decades behind bars" for her role in a failed 2009 plot to kill Lars Vilks, a Swedish artist who offended many Muslims by drawing the Prophet Mohammed on the head of a dog.

After years of delay, the American-born LaRose is expected to be sentenced on Monday in Philadelphia. A similar hearing for Mohammad Hassan Khalid, the youngest person ever charged with terrorism in the United States, is set for Tuesday.

Strip this woman of her US citizenship and then dump here in Sweden and let the Scandies deal with her. Maybe she can hook up up with Lars and he can convert her to his point of view, and then eventually the both of them will be snuffed by jihadists.
