Woman Charged for False Accusation of Terrorism

(Columbus, Ohio) This morning the FBI arrested Khadrah Farah Ali, 42, for falsely reporting that her husband was involved in terrorist plots to bomb the U.S. and Saudi embassies in London. Ali admitted she was mad at her husband, Osman Yusef Dirie, because he only married her to obtain residency status in the U.S.

Ali could be sentenced to five years in prison if convicted. To be reasonable, she should be forced to pay compensation to the government for the funds used to investigate the false claim. To be realistic, she'll probably only get a hand slap.
