The verdict, delivered by the Manhattan District Attorney\u2019s Office, marks a significant milestone in the fight against terrorism financing facilitated through cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

According to a press release from the Manhattan District Attorney\u2019s Office, Jacobs was deeply entrenched in online terrorist networks, actively involved in \u201craising and laundering thousands of dollars\u201d for Syrian terrorist groups. District Attorney Alvin Bragg emphasized the gravity of Jacobs\u2019 actions, stating, \u201cFrom the safety of her Manhattan apartment, she enabled these groups to access our city\u2019s financial markets in order to help further their mission.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Jacobs was found guilty on multiple charges, including three felony counts of providing support for an act of terrorism, conspiracy, money laundering, and criminal possession of a weapon. Prosecutors revealed that Jacobs funneled over $6,000 to a terrorist group named \u201cMalhama Tactical\u201d and laundered $12,000 through cryptocurrency and wire transfers. The funds were directed to Bitcoin<\/a> wallets controlled by the terrorist organization.<\/p>\n
