An Arlington teenager will serve a 20-year prison sentence for trying to recruit a fellow American into a Pakistani terrorist group.

Sewell was arrested in February after he messaged two undercover federal agents posing as terrorists.
He pleaded guilty in May to a charge of conspiracy to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization.
