Likely things could be different for a man, since a woman with children would be unlikely to have carried a weapon,  or raped or beheaded anyone.  At Nuremburg, NAZIS were judged as individuals, according to what a court could prove they did individually, not by what NAZIs in general did.  If you followed my links, then you can see an ex-ISIS woman now gets to live in Texas, no problem.

Hopefully someone from GW's Program on Extremism will at least get to interview Muthana.  One thing their reports make clear is that the appeal of ISIS to people in the US changes over time.    https://extremism.gwu.edu/reports
