US man admits he attempted to join, aid Pak-based Lashkar-e-Taiba

A US citizen named Jesus Wilfredo Encarnacion has admitted before a US federal judge that he was guilty of attempting to provide support to Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). The 30-year-old accepted that he had planned to travel overseas to join LeT and become an "executioner" for them. Encarnacion was arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation at an airport last year.
