Swedish man found guilty in killing of Jordanian fighter pilot in Syria
The Swede, identified in court documents as Osama Krayem, was sentenced to life in prison for participating in the execution of Muath al-Kasasbeh. A Swedish man was found guilty of serious war crimes and terrorism on Thursday over his role in the murder of a Jordanian air force pilot who was burned to death in Syria a decade ago, the Stockholm district court said in a verdict. The Swede, identified in court documents as Osama Krayem, was sentenced to life in prison for participating in the execution of Muath al-Kasasbeh, who was burned alive in a cage after being captured in Syria in December 2014. Convictions for attacks in France and Belgium Krayem, 32, has previously been convicted of involvement in attacks in Paris in 2015 and in Brussels in 2016, and was transferred to Sweden from France to stand trial in Stockholm. Krayem has denied acting with intent. His Swedish lawyer did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The Islamic State terrorist group, which once imposed a reign of terror over millions of people inSyria and Iraq, captured the Jordanian pilot and later released a video showing his execution. While the evidence showed that the fire that killed al-Kasasbeh was lit by another man, Krayem was also involved in the killing, the court said. "The District Court has found that the defendant, through his actions, contributed so actively to the death of the pilot that he should be considered a perpetrator," presiding Judge Anna Liljenberg Gullesjo said in a court statement. Islamic State controlled swathes of Iraq and Syria between 2014 and 2017, before being defeated in its last bastions in Syria in 2019. Under Swedish law, courts can try individuals for violations of international law committed abroad.

Swedish man convicted for his role in 2015 killing of a Jordanian pilot by the Islamic State group
STOCKHOLM (AP) — A Swedish man was convicted and sentenced to life in prison on Thursday for his role in the 2015 killing of a Jordanian pilot by the Islamic State militant group, Swedish media reported. The 26-year-old Jordanian, 1st Lt. Mu'ath al-Kaseasbeh, was taken captive after his F-16 fighter jet crashed near the extremists' de facto capital of Raqqa in northern Syria. He was forced into a cage that was set on fire in early 2015. The suspect, identified by Swedish prosecutors as Osama Krayem, 32, is alleged to have traveled to Syria in September 2014 to fight for IS. Krayem was sentenced to life in prison on Thursday, Swedish news agency TT reported. Krayem was indicted by Swedish prosecutors in May on suspicion of committing serious war crimes and terrorist crimes in Syria. He was previously convicted in France and Brussels for fatal Islamic State attacks in those countries. The airman became the first known foreign military pilot to fall into the militants' hands after the U.S.-led international coalition began its aerial campaign against the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq in 2014. Jordan, a close U.S. ally, was a member of the coalition and the pilot's killing appeared aimed at pressuring the government of Jordan to leave the alliance.

Food Network Star Anne Burrell's Cause Of Death Revealed After Chef Was Found Dead Inside Her Brooklyn Home
Food Network star 's shocking death has been ruled a suicide after first responders discovered her dead inside her New York home. The chef—who rose to stardom after starring in 'Worst Cooks in America'—was found 'unconscious and unresponsive' inside her $1.5 million Brooklyn apartment in June. Now, five weeks after her sudden death, the cooking mogul's passing has been confirmed a suicide, as first reported by People. Burrell's death was described as 'acute intoxication due to the combined effects of diphenhydramine, ethanol, cetirizine, and amphetamine,' according to the New York City medical examiner's office. Diphenhydramine and cetirizine are antihistamines that are often used to target allergies. Amphetamine is often prescribed to help treat ADHD. Meanwhile, ethanol is compound found in alcohol. Officers from the 76th Precinct of the NYPD responded to a 911 call from Burrell's address about an 'unresponsive 55-year-old female' potentially in 'cardiac arrest' on Tuesday, June 17 at 7:50 a.m. However, after arriving at the property, emergency responders 'pronounced [Burrell] deceased on scene,' police officers said. The chef is survived by her husband, Stuart Claxton, and his son, Javier; her mother, Marlene; sister, Jane; and her children Isabella, Amelia, and Nicolas; as well as her brother, Ben. According to People, police officers didn't initially identify Burrell as the deceased because they had yet to inform her family members about her passing. However, the address police provided in their report matches an apartment unit that is registered to Burrell. The star chef's family later announced the tragic news of her death in a statement, describing Burrell as a 'beloved' relative and friend. 'Anne was a beloved wife, sister, daughter, stepmother, and friend—her smile lit up every room she entered. Anne's light radiated far beyond those she knew, touching millions across the world. Though she is no longer with us, her warmth, spirit, and boundless love remain eternal,' the family's heartbreaking statement read. The Food Network also honored the cooking guru in a message shared with the New York Post, which read, 'Anne was a remarkable person and culinary talent – teaching, competing and always sharing the importance of food in her life and the joy that a delicious meal can bring. 'Our thoughts are with Anne's family, friends and fans during this time of tremendous loss.' Burrell had been living in the Carroll Gardens dwelling since 2019, when she purchased it for $1.5 million, according to records, two years before she tied the knot with Claxton. In the years since, she shared regular glimpses inside the three-bedroom property, offering fans a sneak peek inside the picturesque abode, as well as the sunlit terrace on which she could often be seen relaxing. Other sweet social media posts shared from inside the home included videos of her husband bonding with their pet cats, as well as images of Burrell kicking back with some knitting, or cuddling with her beloved felines. Burrell became a household name after showcasing her talents in the kitchen on a slew of cooking shows, including 'Iron Chef America,' 'Chef Wanted,' and 'Chopped.' The chef even received an Emmy nomination for her show 'Secrets of a Restaurant Chef,' which was on for nine seasons. Burrell graced TV screens after teaching at the Institute of Culinary Education in the early 2000s. In addition to cooking up several tasty meals on the big screen, Burrell also released two cookbooks: 'Cook Like a Rock Star,' which was a New York Times bestseller, and 'Own Your Kitchen: Recipes to Inspire and Empower.' Just five days before she passed away, Burrell shared a selfie to Instagram with a Big Apple icon, who is known as Green Lady of Brooklyn, and expressed her excitement to meet the NYC star.
