Ohio professor Julio Pino accused of ISIS ties
A Kent State University professor is under investigation for possible connections to ISIS.
A joint terrorism task force has been investigating Julio Pino for his alleged involvement with ISIS, WOIO reported, citing an unnamed FBI source.
Officials said Pino, an associate history professor, is also accused of trying to recruit students to join ISIS and has been watched by the FBI since 2014.
A statement issued by the university Tuesday said they are cooperating with the investigation:
“Kent State is fully cooperating with the FBI and its ongoing investigation. KSU will have no further comments at this time. The FBI has assured that there are no threats to the KSU campus.”
Kent State University President Beverly Warren took to Twitter early Wednesday to assure students of their safety.
