On April 8, 2014, the FBI arrested nineteen-year-old Conley at the Denver Airport as she was preparing to board a flight to Adana, Turkey. She had planned to make her way into Syria, which borders Turkey, and marry a Tunisian man she met online who was affiliated with the terrorist group known as Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). A certified nurse's aide Conley apparently intended to provide medical assistance to ISIL fighters, who have killed a number of Americans in the Middle East. Conley eventually pleaded guilty to providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization, and, in January 2015, a federal judge sentenced her to four years in prison.

United States has designated a "foreign terrorist organization."
