The person arrested is0:14identified as 35-year-old [music]0:16Jessica Bowie who also uses the name0:18Aisha Siff. The federal record describes0:20the plot as Isis inspired0:22>> [music]0:22>> beginning in July 2026 with an online0:24pledge of allegiance to Isis and an0:26intent to kill public officials, destroy0:28documents [music] and then flee to0:29Syria. Investigators allege Bowie0:32surveilled the capital to map its layout0:34and timing and bought materials to build0:35a nail bomb including nail materials0:37from a hardware store on August 5th,0:39[music] 2026. A nail bomb is designed to0:41drive metal fragments through a crowded0:43enclosed space which makes a legislative0:45chamber during a meeting a high casualty0:46environment [music] for senators, staff0:48and security inside. The arrest followed0:50an undercover operation. FBI agents0:53posed [music] as builders who could0:54assemble the device, pretended to build0:56it, conducted an undercover exchange and0:59provided an inert, non-functional1:01explosive device with instructions.1:03The device was then interdicted through1:05a transport [music] plan centered on a1:06DoorDash bag intended to conceal, carry1:09and deliver it into the capital. The1:11federal charge is attempting to provide1:13material support to the designated1:14foreign terrorist organization Isis1:17cited in the Justice Department record1:18as 18 USC section 2339B and summarized1:22in early web reports as section 2340A.1:26The charge carries a maximum penalty of1:2820 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.1:31Bowie was arrested on August 19th, 20261:34after that exchange including a meeting1:35with FBI informants who provided the1:37inert device. The account comes from NBC1:40News broadcast published August 20th,1:412021 drawing on FBI statements and a1:43Justice Department record and federal1:45complaint. That coverage includes a new1:47mugshot and surveillance images taken1:49before the arrest documenting presence1:50near the capital and during preparatory1:52steps. Investigators say providing an1:54inert device ensured no real explosive1:56was ever completed or placed,1:58interrupting a plan that would have put1:59a full meeting of senators [music] at2:01immediate lethal risk and struck the2:03central building of state governance.2:04The use of undercover builders and a2:06food [music] delivery bag as concealment2:07shows the method the alleged plan relied2:09on to move an explosive past security.2:11[music]2:11Several central questions have not been2:13disclosed. The exact date and time of2:15the senators [music] meeting referenced2:16as the intended moment has not been2:18detailed, nor has the full complaint2:20beyond the material [music] support2:21count or the resolution of the2:22conflicting statute citations.
