Feb. 3rd, 2015 06:08 amHeather Elizabeth Coffman, 29, is charged with making a false statement regarding an offense involving international or domestic terrorism.
Coffman was caught in a sting and unknowingly offered to help an undercover FBI agent connect someone with the Islamic State in Syria, according to a federal affidavit. Authorities say she lied to investigators who were looking into her support of the extremist group.
The case appears to be another example of the Islamic State’s robust presence on social media and the influence it is having on Americans.
Two months ago, a 19-year-old from suburban Denver pleaded guilty to trying to help the terrorist organization after she tried to board a flight to reach Turkey. She reportedly was trying to connect with a man she met online. And last month, three teenage girls from the Denver area were detained at an airport in Germany and questioned about possibly trying to join the Islamic State. A school official said the girls were victims of an “online predator.”
