From the Colorado Springs Gazette
Key Excerpts:
"A Saudi linguist convicted of sexually assaulting a housekeeper and keeping her a virtual slave for four years won a 20-year reduction in his prison sentence Friday, and his defense attorneys hope it means he'll be released from prison soon."
"District Judge J. Mark Hannen sentenced Homaidan al-Turki to between eight years and life in prison during a hearing Friday in Centennial. Hannen cited al-Turki's good behavior in prison in reducing the original sentence of 28 years to life:
"Mr. al-Turki already has been substantially punished for his conduct against the victim," Hannen said in handing down the new sentence."
"Al-Turki insists he is innocent and a victim of anti-Muslim sentiment. "
"His case has angered Saudi authorities - several of whom attended Friday's hearing - and prompted the U.S. State Department to send Colorado Attorney General John Suthers to Saudi Arabia to meet with King Abdullah, Crown Prince Sultan and al-Turki's family after al-Turki's 2006 conviction."
"Saudi Ambassador Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir sent a letter to Hannen telling him that al-Turki's incarceration is perceived as unjust in his home country and asked for leniency partly to keep "the long-standing friendship that exists between our two countries." --read it all here.

How about we give his sex slave a high powered weapon, and one clear shot at the perp.?
So the next time an American woman in Saudi Arabia is caught sitting with a man, they will get a free pass. Right?

Ummm, doesn’t the Saudi king have more immediate, more pressing problems to worry about? Like, oh, I don’t know, a nasty little “revolution” brewing on his own turf?
...where slavery and sexual abuse of housekeepers is regarded as normal behavior sanctioned by the queer'ann.
Can't wait for the diversity card to be played and the bring on Sharia Law chants. Whatever happened with the woman? Is she still in America or was she sent back and promptly stoned?
I wonder how much blood money was slipped to the judge.
When the revolution begins here, we will be playing cowboys and muslims. No closed season, no bag limit.
So American law, is now under the influence of Foreign Nations, and any national can now ask for his countries way of life to be honored and respected here under their own laws???
sigh, I would call that a fail, and as such, we do not have to fight islamic overthrow in our court system, it is already upheld.
Wonder when the stoning and honor killing free passes are to be given out.

Our judicial system is becomming a Sharia joke.
What’s his Kos avatar?
If he is a citizen, then the issue isn't so much about punishment as protecting society from his predispositions. That's what the judge should be concerned about - the safety of innocent people, not how much punishment is good/bad punishment.
This is outrageous. Here is a guy simply expressing his rich Islamic culture like he would do back home and he gets punished by the racist American judicial system. What ever happened to multi-culturalism? Sheesh.
An Arab national in a Colorado prison is in for trouble. You haven’t heard the last of this story.
Know about the “Kos”, but never watched “Avatar”
How can so many give them a free pass? We've been infiltrated by this sick cult for decades though Saudi money.
And a huge amount of that money is because our government prevents us from drilling our own oil.
Put noose around neck...jump from high place...
“And a huge amount of that money is because our government prevents us from drilling our own oil.”
Ditto!
What other arab/muslim perversions are we supposed to accept from this primitive culture? This is disgusting.
That alone should lead to an automatic doubling of the sentence.
Oh, and fire the judge for caving in to Saudi pressure. (Or was it a call from the White House?)
