Two cousins from Aurora are accused of plotting to join ISIS for terrorist attacks here and abroad. Hasan Edmonds, an Illinois National Guard soldier, was arrested at Midway airport Wednesday night, trying to fly to Cairo where he allegedly planned to take part in attacks for the Islamic State. Jonas Edmonds is accused of plotting to carry out an attack at the Joliet military facility. FBI agents, working undercover, had the pair under surveillance and had met with them over the past few months under the guise of helping them carry out their plan.
The 2 had planned to kill over 100 people
