The parents of a woman, Kayla Jean Mueller, who was held by the Islamic State group said on tuesday that they were told that she is dead. They received a message from her captors this past weekend. ISIS said that Mueller had been killed by a Jordanian airstrike in Raqqa, Syria, which was highly unlikely according to the Jordanian government. Kayla Mueller is from Arizona. She was taken in a northern city in Syria August 2013. While Kayla was held captive, she wrote a note that said "I know you would want me to remain strong. That is exactly what I'm doing, I have learned that even in prison, one can be free. I am grateful. I have come to see there is good in every situation, sometimes we just have to look for it." Before she was taken captive, she was working in Turkey to help Syrian refugees. Mueller is the fourth American to be killed by ISIS. There were three others who were killed: James Foley and Steven Sotloff, and Peter Kassig. They were all beheaded.
