A British national has admitted to a US federal court that he played a leadership role in an Islamic State scheme to torture, hold for ransom and eventually behead American hostages.
Alexanda Amon Kotey admitted guilt in connection with the deaths of four American hostages — journalist James Foley, journalist Steven Sotloff and aid workers Peter Kassig and Kayla Mueller — as well as European and Japanese nationals who also were held captive.
The 37-year-old pleaded guilty to all eight counts against him at a plea hearing in the US District Court in Alexandria.
