Colleen R LaRose alias Fatima LaRose, a 46-year-old Pennsylvania resident, was arrested in October last year and charged on four counts -- conspiracy to provide support to terrorists, attempting murder in a foreign country, indulging in identity thefts and making false statements. The five-minute hearing provided the first public glimpse of LaRose since she was accused of plotting to kill Swedish-cartoonist Lars Vilks for a blasphemous cartoon of Prophet Mohammed.
According to the indictment, unsealed in a Pennsylvania court, American citizen Colleen R LaRose, also known as 'Fatima LaRose' and 'Jihad Jane' is charged with conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists, conspiracy to kill in a foreign country, making false statements to a government official and attempted identity theft.
