Amman, Jordan (CNN)The parents of Kayla Mueller are imploring ISIS to contact them. They believe -- or at least hope -- that their daughter may still be alive. "We have sent you a private message and ask that you respond to us privately," Carl and Marsha Mueller said in a statement. The couple is not giving interviews to the media as ISIS warned them not to. CNN had previously not published her name at the request of her relatives, who have now publicly identified her. The terror group captured Mueller, an Arizona native, in 2013. It said Friday that a Jordanian airstrike that pounded their de facto capital of Raqqa in Syria also killed her.

Skeptics fear @placeholder may have long killed her and just waited for an opportunity to officially announce the death -- a suspicion that has been floated before when ISIS uploaded slickly produced, odious videos of other victims' killings.
