A US judge ordered the Qatar military officer and his wife to be expelled immediately after he heard how the two servants were forced to live in squalor while they enjoyed the lap of luxury in their upscale San Antonio home.
Hassan al-Homoud, 46, who received military training at San Antonio's Camp Bullis, and his wife, Zainab al-Hosani, a citizen of the United Arab Emirates, pleaded guilty to federal charges in December.
District Judge Orlando Garcia said he had hoped to hand down a harsher sentence than deportation in the case, since engaging in forced labour is a crime punishable by up to 10 years' in prison.
But a plea agreement was offered to the couple because the servants - one from Bangladesh and the other from Indonesia - refused to testify against them. Homoud pleaded guilty to visa fraud while his wife pleaded guilty to knowing that a felony was taking place and failing to report it.The couple also agreed to pay $60,000 (£41,000) compensation to each of their victims.The court heard that the duo kept the servants in primitive conditions, withholding their wages, confiscating their mobile phones and passports, and giving them barely enough food to survive.

Slavery is alive and well and living in Islam.
Interesting. Misprision of a felony (wife). Haven’t heard of one of those cases in quite a while.
Some years ago a district court judge issued a deportation order in sentencing and the administration (it may have even been the Bush one) challenged the district court judge’s jurisdictional authority to do it. Their argument was that only the administration’s immigration judges, who are not even Article III judges, have deportation authority. I think they won. Let’s watch and see how this one unfolds.
They got off too easy!
“Moderate” Muslims
IMET student.
something is still not quite right about this story.
a judge doesn’t have to accept a plea deal.
here earlier background
They were just emulating their prophet and practicing their religion.......
The slave ship masters from Britain and New England bought the slaves at the muslim slave markets. Some of those markets are still in operation.
First, let’s cut off some hands and make them feel really nostalgic.
Too bad he didn’t order a Texas Necktie Party for both.
Illegals are treated awfully by some employers. They are afraid to go to authorities for obvious reasons. Illegal immigration is corrupting for our society.
There is another case which was just reported in Houston in the River Oaks - think affluent - area. Will be interesting to see how that one plays out.
Slavery is not only alive and well and living in islam, but is extremely widespread therein.
Kicking out forever, and shot on sight if ever found back here.
That is what I would sentence them.
Hard labor for them in a rented Siberian prison camp!
Deported 30 years later (if they survive).
Illegal immigration is corrupting for our society
Fixed it for ya.......
The repeal will come when the a##clown nominates and the boot lickers of the GOP confirm the first muslim to the supreme court and sharia law
