Notorious ISIS 'Beatle' AVOIDS spending life sentence in 'concrete box' at Colorado supermax prison: Killer, 34, who slaughtered four US hostages is sent to 'softer' jail as lawyers plead for his mental health
2022-09-27
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • El Shafee Elsheikh,
    ...“George” from the London ‘hood. He was born in Sudan, and he is not at all a nice man — the rest is only vicious detail. The British government stripped him both of British citizenship and protections when they cast him on the bosom of American law, asking only that he not get the death penalty...
    34, will not go to what's known as a 'concrete box' at the ADX Florence prison in Colorado but a less restrictive prison on the same site

  • At USP Florence High — at the same site — Elsheikh will live among a general prison population rather than spend 23 hours a day in solitary confinement

  • Elsheikh received eight life sentences after committing 'some of the most barbaric terrorist acts ever seen' as part of the twisted 'ISIS Beatles' group

  • They captured, tortured and killed a group of journalists and aid workers in Syria in 2014

  • Other prisoners who have spent time at Florence High include Boston Marathon Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Green River serial killer, Gary Ridgway

#8  Coexistence, or, Interfaith Fever!
His shivver was Hindoo, one Shiva;
A Christian, omnivorous,
Ate up the liver;
At cleanup, a Hebrew believer.

#3  You are a just another common murderer in a fed prison serving life. You can become famous for 10 minutes and have your name in print across the country. What's not to like?

This deserves the image of "I'am I stupid".

#2  Putting him in General Population is a recipe for trouble. Actually so is not executing him.

#1  Maybe the general population in his softer prison will make his stay ... short.
