A woman accused of stealing thousands from the one fund pleads guilty. Good afternoon. Thanks so much for joining us. Authorities say joanna lee faked a traumatic brain injury after marathon bombing and shes facing a hefty bill. Reporter at one point joanna lee said she was the target of a witch point. Today she changed her tune pleading guilty to receiving nearly 40,000 in benefits she didnt deserve including about 8000 from the one fund. A judge did not give her any jail time, a three year suspended sentence, Community Service and Mental Health evaluation. She will have to pay back all the money because prosecutors say lee falsely claimed she suffered a brain injury in the Boston Marathon bombing and billed herself as a hero claiming she ran toward the second blast. Now she was blocks from the bombings but investigators say she did not receive medical treatment until two weeks after the attack. Here is what her attorney had to say about his client outside the courtroom. A crazy crime, you know. Its like stupid. There were other defendants that already were sentenced and they werent at the bombing. Reporter how is she going to pay the money back . Her Attorney Says it will come from her moms retirement money and savings. Her attorney said she probably could have received money honestly because she has a ptsd diagnosis from the bombing. He even showed us a picture of lee allegedly helping someone on the day of the bombing. Louiso moller. Thank you very much. Developing now, one of the most recognizable figures in killed. The pentagon is working to confirm. Reporter a u. S. Official tells cbs news they are almost certain a u. S. Strike killed isis terrorist muhammed emwazi. A missile was fired tuesday night as he entered a vehicle. Praised u. S. Mission. Many more people. Reporter he is believed to be responsible for beheading at least seven hostages including american journalist james foley and an american aid worker in syria in 2014. The gruesome videos he appeared in presented the world water fiing image of the Islamic State and were a powerful emwazi was born in kuwait but raised in london, a graduate from university of westminster he had a degree in computer programming. Emwazi disappeared from his familys london home two years ago and traveled to syria. Video massacres he staged turned him into a symbolic leader of the Islamic State and a top u. S. Target. The United States has been tracking jihadi john for more than a year. Secretary of state john kerry says this strike should serve as a warning to all extremists that their days are numbers. We spoke with a local mother whose son spent time as a hostage in syria. She says even if jihadi john is dead, isis wont lose any steam. Reporter for nancy, this makes little difference. It doesnt solve the problem. I dont think we will be eliminating this problem for a long time. Reporter shes seen cruelty of terrorism in a way few americans have. As a mother waiting for her hostage son to come home. Theo curtis was working as a freelance writer when taken captive for two years in syria. It breaks my heart. Reporter during the painstaking time she made an unexpected friend. We met fairly early on before we knew whether our sons were alive. Reporter that woman was james foleys mother. He was murdered by isis in august of last year. We would say to one another, it will be great when they get back because theyll be such good friends. They are teachers and writers from Northern New England and love the outdoors. It didnt work out that way. Reporter nancy did get her son back but has a hard time celebrating that. People would say oh you must be so happy. I say how can i be happy when my friends child has been murdered . Reporter instead of recognizing the death of any terrorist nancy prefers to think about the intellectual progress her son has made and the impact journalists like james foley have had. They all are people we should be proud of. They were idealistic. They wanted to help. They wanted to bear witness. They felt they could make a difference. The foley family just issued a statement saying in part it is a very small solace to learn that jihadi john may have been killed by u. S. Government.
