JihadJane Confessed Shortly After Arrest
“JihadJane” said to have confessed – Philadelphia Enquirer
According to anonymous sources close to the investigation, Colleen LaRose, the 46-year-old American woman indicted for, among other things, plotting to kill Swedish cartoonist Lars Vilks, confessed to the murder plot shortly following her arrest in October 2009. Despite this confession, and despite reportedly cooperating with the FBI, the self-titled “JihadJane” is still expected to plead not guilty. A not guilty plea would not prevent LaRose for accepting a negotiated plea agreement at a later date, it simply signals the beginning of formal legal proceedings. LaRose is scheduled to be arraigned today.
