| Savage ISIS 'Beatle' Terrorist Convicted on All Counts, but Won't Face Death Penalty |
| 2022-04-15 |
| [REDSTATE] A jury in Alexandria, Virginia, Thursday convicted a member of the brutal ISIS terror cell known as "The Beatles." The group was particularly savage, even by terrorists’ standards, and reportedly beheaded three hostages while subjecting a fourth to unimaginable cruelty. The group was dubbed "The Beatles" because of their British accents. The charges included lethal hostage-taking and conspiracy to commit murder. According to Rooters, the convicted terrorist, whose name I don’t care enough to type, could have faced a possible death sentence ...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead... . Prosecutors, however, have indicated they will only seek life in prison. Why?! RedState’s Bonchie in a 2019 article described how the two surviving members of the group angled to get extradited to the United States instead of facing a judge in Iraq, where they doubtless would have been treated more harshly. (A third member, known as "Jihadi John," was blown away in a Hellfire missile dronezap in Syria in 2015. Another was caught by The remaining pair refused to accept responsibility for their crimes. CNN ...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for... interviewed them in 2018: Confronted by CNN with the fact several of their former hostages and alleged victims had said they recognized their faces and voices from previous interviews, Elsheikh declined to comment on what he said would be a legal matter. "It’s just an accusation, legally speaking. You know, if Britannia said ’we are going to deal with you by barbaric law, or with law from the medieval ages,’ then hang, draw and quarter me. But that’s not the case. I’m just merely pointing that out." Kotey offered a similarly veiled denial and refused to be drawn on specific allegations. |

| #4 Re #1: Frank G, IIRC, I don't think prisoners in a supermax prison have much contact with other inmates, so chances of him getting shanked should be low. |
