The Barry University
student who helped conservative firebrand James O’Keefe secretly
record a video showing school
staff supposedly support ISIS could be facing criminal charges,
according to a local news
station.
Laura Loomer, a
senior studying communications, helped O’Keefe’s organization, Project Veritas,
capture secret video of staff members at Barry apparently offering advice on
how to start a pro-Islamic State organization. Loomer pretended that she wanted
to start an organization, dubbed Sympathetic Students in Support of the Islamic
State of Iraq and Syria, which would send humanitarian and financial aid to the
Islamic State.
At one point in the
video, a staffer for Barry suggests altering the group’s name, because
“technically, we’re at war with ISIS.” Barry argues it is ludicrous to claim
anybody at the school backs Islamic terrorism and says it is the victim of
deception and misleading edits to the video.
Loomer has already
been suspended and booted off Barry’s campus for her role in creating the
video. Now, a staff member at the school says that his appearance in the video
violated Florida criminal law governing the recording of conversations. (RELATED:
