"Incredible shock, I didn't believe it -- I didn't want to believe it," Foley's mother Diane testified about learning that her son was killed. Dressed in a black sweater, Marsha Mueller's voice became stronger with each passing minute as she told of Kayla's love for owls, music and books, and how Kayla had sought to provide aid to women and children refugees in need.
When Kayla was reported killed on Feb. 6, 2015, ISIS emailed Carl and Marsha Mueller three photos of their lifeless daughter. Another witness who faced Elsheikh in court was Spanish journalist Marc Marginedas, who was kidnapped in Syria and held with Mueller, Foley, Cantlie and others including American journalist Steven Sotloff, with whom Marginedas became close during their captivity.
