ISIS-SUPPORTING U.S. SOLIDER SENTENCED TO 25 YEARS FOR ‘BETRAYAL’
A U.S. Army soldier, fed on ISIS propaganda, will be spending 25 years behind bars for “his betrayal and his crimes.”
Sgt. 1st Class Ikaika Erik Kang, who spent his spare time watching ISIS recruitment videos on the internet, was sentenced Tuesday.
He ultimately swore an oath of allegiance to the terrorist organization that directly conflicted with the one he had already pledged to the U.S. Constitution. Kang was actively trying to assist the terrorist organization with “material support,” the Washington Examiner reports.
“Kang swore to defend the United States as a member of our military, but betrayed his country by swearing allegiance to ISIS and attempting to provide it material support,” reads a statement from Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Demers. “With the sentence imposed today, he is being held accountable for his betrayal and his crimes.”
