A Virginia man who traveled to Syria to join the ISIS terror group was sentenced Friday to 20 years in prison. Mohamad Jamal Khweis, 28, was convicted by a federal jury in June of providing material support to a terrorist organization. Investigators say Khweis left the U.S. and traveled to Syria via Turkey in December 2015. Along the way, according to prosecutors, Khweis used encrypted mobile devices and applications in an effort to conceal his activities. After Khweis joined ISIS, he stayed in a safe house with other recruits in Raqqa, the capital of the group's so-called "caliphate."
