The wife of a dead ISIS commander was charged Monday after the Justice Department alleged she was part of a plot that resulted in the death of a 26-year-old U.S. aid worker who was kidnapped by ISIS in Syria, the Daily Beast reports.
The ISIS widow, known as Umm Sayyaf, is expected to be charged by Iraqi officials, so she may never end up in a U.S. court. But the official said the charges were “an insurance policy” in case she isn’t charged in Iraq or in case she escapes prison.
What remains unclear is how 26-year-old aid worker, Kayla Mueller, died after being kidnapped by ISIS.
The charges allege that Sayyaf was a sex slave held against her will.
Sayyaf’s husband was killed, and she was taken custody and interrogated in Iraq.
