Old Dominion terrorist Mohamed Bailor Jalloh had been serving time in federal prison until 2024 for helping plot a heinous attack against the US — but ended up being cut loose early, records show.
The 36-year-old ISIS-linked maniac — who was killed after he opened fire at the Virginia university Thursday — was sprung from federal custody Dec. 23, 2024, after serving roughly eight years of his 11-year sentence.
Jalloh, who was a former member of the Virginia National Guard, was originally sentenced in 2017 after confessing to providing material to the Islamic State.
He had previosly claimed to a federal informant “to know how to shoot guns and praised the gunman who killed five U.S. military members in a terrorist attack in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in July 2015,’’ the Justice Department said at the time of his plea deal.
“Jalloh also stated he had been thinking about conducting an attack similar to the terrorist attack at Ft. Hood, Texas, in November 2009, which killed 13 people and wounded 32 others,’’ the statement said.
It wasn’t immediately clear why his prison release was moved up.
The Bureau of Prisons did not immediately respond to a Post request for comment Friday.
