> BERLIN — A German woman who took her young daughter to Syria, joined the Islamic State group there and allegedly took advantage of an enslaved Yazidi woman was convicted Wednesday of membership in a terrorist organization and other offenses.
> The state court in Celle said the 34-year-old, **who has been identified only as Romiena S.** in line with German privacy rules, was **sentenced to three years and three months in prison**. She was also convicted of being an accessory to a **crime against humanity**, abducting a minor and breaching her duties of welfare and education.
🤣 Good luck with this one Germans. I feel bad about what your country and it’s political elite is doing to itself and your community.
> The court said the defendant largely admitted to the allegations against her and has now “distanced herself credibly” from IS. It said in a statement that **judges also took into account the fact she wasn’t a “hard-liner” and that joining IS was in part “an escape from her previous life situation.”** It didn’t elaborate.
