Washington – A 29-year-old Virginia woman was sentenced Monday to nearly five years in prison for lying to FBI agents about her role in promoting terrorism.
Heather Elizabeth Coffman is to spend 54 months in prison after admitting in January 2015 to lying during the FBI investigation, the Department of Justice said.
The evidence in her case included four Facebook accounts using pseudonymns that included Heather La’Ahad and Uebeida Ametova, according to a court document from November 2014.
The online social media giant provided the information in response to a search warrant. The false Facebook accounts contained declarations of support for violent jihad and Islamic State and displayed the extremist group’s black flag, the court document showed.
“Coffman cultivated online relationship with individuals she believed were ISIS facilitators operating in Syria,” the Department of Justice said, using an acronym for Islamic State.
Coffman used the Facebook accounts to provide contact for at least one follower with whom she was romantically involved to travel to Syria and join Islamic State. She offered financial assistance for his travel, according to the court document.
After the person backed out, she expressed her disappointment to others, including an undercover FBI agent.
“I want him [the person] in Syria and I want him die as a shaheed … If I don’t marry a mujahid or one with intentions to become one … then my husband is nothing,” she said in messages to the undercover agent. – ANA/DPA
