The new twist in the James Foley murder case that was killed by the member of the Islamic State of the Irag and the levant (ISIS) is they want the Foley's to pay a sum of $1m for his body. The photo was the first journalist to be beheaded by ISIS after a failed rescue mission and the US mission trip to kill members of the sect.
The middleman between the family and ISIS claims ISIS wants to release the body as an act of mercy and gives the family closure over their son's death.
Also the group said they will send James DNA to Turkey for confirmation, but before they would do this, the family needs to pay the ransom, because it is only an act of mercy.
At the moment, it is unclear if the family will go through with the ransom payment. The USA will not negotiate with terrorist and will also stop any of it's citizens trying to pay ransom to any terrorist group.
