The prosecution claimed Daud exchanged text messages with an ISIS fighter who was already in Syria.

Daud is given directions in the text messages on what to say if he is questioned at the airport, and what to do once he gets to Syria.

More evidence is expected to be released next week. All three defendants are now facing life in prison.
