Do we have Jihad Jane #2? Jamie Paulin-Ramirez, 31, was detained in Ireland in connection with an alleged plot to assassinate Lars Vilks, a Swedish cartoonist whose sketch depicting the head of the Prophet Muhammad on a dog's body, sparked outrage in the Muslim community. Paulin-Ramirez was arrested along with six other people by authorities. Vilks' cartoon irked al-Qaida so much that it offered a $100,000 bounty for his murder.

According to ABC News, after the arrests, U.S. authorities unsealed terror charges against Colleen LaRose, 46, of Pennsylvania. She allegedly went by the name "Jihad Jane" to recruit others online to kill the cartoonist. It is not clear at this time whether Paulin-Ramirez will face terror charges.

Mott said that Paulin-Ramirez told her family after she left in September that she went to Ireland with her 6-year-old son and married an Algerian whom she met online. Before abruptly leaving Colorado, Paulin-Ramirez had been a straight-A nursing student, her mother said.

Earlier this week, Irish authorities announced the arrest of seven Muslims in the alleged plot, only identifying them as three Algerians, a Libyan, a Palestinian, a Croatian and an American woman married to one of the Algerians. They were arrested Tuesday, hours before U.S. authorities unveiled a terror indictment against LaRose. The Motts said Paulin-Ramirez announced to her family last spring that she was converting to Islam and began wearing headscarves, and later a hijab. Source: ABC News

It is crazy how easily some people can be brainwashed into joining radicals bent on doing harm to the United States. The families of these people don't deserve the scrutiny they now find themselves under. This is similar to the case of Sharif Mobley who was arrested in Yemen after trying to shoot his way out of a hospital there.

UPDATE#1:  Jaime Paulin-Ramirez has reportedly been released. More details to follow.
