ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A Virginia federal jury began deliberations on Wednesday in the case of a confessed ISIS fighter accused of being one of the infamous"Beatles," the British terrorists who tortured and murdered more than six victims among a group of 26 westerners held hostage in Syria.
The videos shocked the world as the executioner -- later named as Mohammed Emwazi -- demanded the U.S. cease military strikes against ISIS. The U.S. instead relied primarily on Elsheikh’s own statements after his 2018 capture by Syrian Democratic Forces with fellow admitted ISIS Beatle Alexanda Kotey, who has pleaded guilty. They told several journalists, primarily British filmmaker Sean Langan, on video that they held the westerners captive, got family members’ email addresses from hostages such as Mueller, and beat others such as Danish photojournalist Daniel Rye.
The captors forced them to sing a version of “Hotel California,” emphasizing the line, “You can never leave” -- but that was hardly the worst of their suffering. By the time he and another hostage were told they were being released as the last two Europeans, Rye said the Americans and British hostages knew they were going to be executed. The U.S. began bombing ISIS in August 2014.
