24-year-old ex-US soldier Bridges sentenced to 14 years for aiding ISIS.
Cole Bridges, a 24-year-old former U.S. Army soldier, was sentenced to 14 years in prison for attempting to aid the Islamic State in targeting American troops. Pleading guilty to providing material support and attempted murder, Bridges communicated with an undercover FBI agent posing as an IS supporter. The judge noted his lack of direct contact with IS and signs of remorse, leading to a reduced sentence. He will also face 10 years of supervised release post-incarceration.
