WNU Editor: I have been holding back information on this hostage for the past few months. And while I do not know if Islamic State reports are accurate .... other sources are now publicizing who she is. A good summary on who Kayla Jean Mueller is can be read here. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends.
