Doci pleaded guilty in October 2024 to making false statements to the FBI during questioning abouy the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham, or ISIS.
According to evidence and the plea agreement, Doci promoted ISIS propaganda online, communicated with ISIS members, sent money overseas in support of ISIS, and facilitated the provision of money by others to ISIS.
