An honor killing?

punk rock yo Asked by rock3rtru about 1 year ago, 13 answers.

Sarah and Amina Said; Killed at 17 and 18 by their father. He called it an Honor Killing.

I calll bullsh*t.

I dont know if anyone has read the story about these two young girls or not. Their father killed them and called it an honor killing. Now, I...

have nothing against the Muslim faith or anything, but this is ridiculous. I mean, he is going to get away with this because no one wants to challenge his faith. He and his family lived in America. His daugthers dated non-muslims and acted western because ::gasp:: they were raised in the LAND OF THE FREE. Maybe where he is from this is acceptable, but in America there are different laws. He shouldnt be allowed to kill his daugthers and still go free!!!
What do you all think?

What makes you so sure that he won't prosecuted??...Faith doesn't work in cases of neglect due to a non-belief in doctors...

They were murdered - the killer should be prosecuted to the fullest extent and justice served.

I live in Irving where the shooting occured. I haven't heard any recent news about it. last I heard the father was on the run and authorities were searcing for him.

Why do you believe that the FBI no longer considers this murder?

there is no such thing as an honor killing in american law. I don't know where you get your news from, but you should probably not use that source for information ever again.

I just checked Fox News...this man has been on the run since January...

• Fifty-year-old Yaser Abdel Said became the focus of a massive manhunt after he allegedly killed his teenage daughters Sarah and Amina — for dating boys against his will. Relatives say he tried to marry off Amina in his native Egypt when she was 16, and he hasn't been seen since the girls were shot to death on New Year's Day.

Currently there is a warrant out for his arrest on capital murder charges. It is believed he might have fled to Egypt.
If captured in the sates or returned to the states, he will be charged and prosecuted.

Your sources are wrong.
