"I was in a trance, and I couldn't see anything else," she said. "I don't want to be in jihad no more."
Assistant US Attorney Jennifer Arbittier Williams had sought "decades behind bars" for LaRose, arguing that despite her extensive cooperation, she still was a danger to society. Prosecutors also had pointed out that LaRose -a blond, green-eyed, white American - did not fit the stereotype of an Islamic militant.
While LaRose was in contact with an al-Qaida operative in Pakistan, her conspirators repeatedly bungled a plot that never moved much past the planning stages. Vilks, the artist, had told Reuters that he believes LaRose has spent enough time in prison and should be freed.
