"Jihad Jane" ally will plead guilty to terrorism charge, attorney says
Source: CNN

(CNN) -- A woman charged with conspiring to provide material support to terrorists will plead guilty to a terrorism charge, her attorney said Tuesday.

Prosecutors say Jamie Paulin-Ramirez aided Colleen LaRose, a woman who called herself "Jihad Jane," in a conspiracy plot to commit murder.

According to a superseding indictment, LaRose sent an electronic communication to Ramirez in August 2009 in which she allegedly stated "soon i (sic) will be moving to europe (sic) to be with other brothers & sisters ....when i (sic) get to europe (sic), i (sic) will send for you to come be with me there. (T)his place will be like a training camp as well as a home.''

Earlier this month, LaRose pleaded guilty at a federal change-of-plea hearing in Philadelphia after being indicted in 2009 on four counts, including conspiring to support terrorists and kill someone overseas.

PHILADELPHIA — A Colorado woman has admitted she conspired to help a terrorist cell that sought to train with al-Qaida-linked group and incite an Islamic holy war.

Paulin-Ramirez faces up to 15 years in prison after her guilty plea Tuesday to conspiring to aid foreign terrorists.

Federal prosecutors say she joined forces with Colleen LaRose of Pennsylvania, who dubbed herself "Jihad Jane" online.

Someone should ask that tool Peter King when he will start hauling thirty something year old blondes before his committee.

3. Be careful - Denver Post is Righthaven's client
so make absolutely sure it's within their guidelines. My local rag are idiots for selling out to Stephens Media, but of course, it is a right-wing rag, worthy of birdcage liners.

11. So I guess she goes off to gitmo because the tea party halfwits
don't like themselves having terrorists housed at maximum security prisons here in the states, right?

Oh how I can't wait for the "debate" over this one.
