Set American former jihadist Colleen LaRose who tried to kill me free, says Swedish political cartoonist
Colleen LaRose. an American woman who attempted to kill a Swedish cartoonist for insulting Islam and who faces sentencing in the United States on Monday, should be set free, the cartoonist himself, Lars Vilks, was quoted as saying by Sweden’s Tidningarnas Telegrambyrå (TT) news agency Saturday.
Prosecutors say LaRose should spend decades behind bars after converting to a radical form of Islam and becoming involved in a plot to kill Vilks in 2009 for penning a cartoon partially characterising the prophet Muhammad as a dog.
But as the sentencing approaches, Lars has intervened by suggesting LaRose — dubbed “Jihad Jane” — has probably put her past behind her and no longer poses a threat to him.
