Armanious case on "America's Most Wanted" TONIGHT
America's Most Wanted ^

Posted on 02/19/2005 4:30:53 PM PST by Selkie

On America's Most Wanted, spotlight tonight on:

Hossam Armanious, his wife Amal and their daughters, Sylvia, 15 and Monica, 9 were found murdered in their Jersey City, New Jersey home. They had been tied up, gagged and stabbed to death. Police are trying to determine if this was a hate crime, as the family were devout Coptic Christians.

Police believe that more than one person may have been involved in the four homicides.

Relatives of the victims recently spoke to the press, but you'd have to look real hard to find it. Here's WND on the subject: Family of slain Christians speaks out

Thanks but I know, I started the thread on it here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1344094/posts

Im oddly obsessed with the whole case.
Or maybe not so oddly.
The thought that a little innoncent 8 year old kid had her throat punctured and slashed while witnessing her family being slaughtered around her is a haunting image to imagine.

Thank you, Selkie! {And what a cool name you got!) I missed that thread somehow.

Lived most of my life in NJ so I know a thing or two about the LE there. Their attitude doesn't surprise me. There's a "master memo" that went around, everybody read it and everybody's following instructions.

Very, very interesting that AMW is covering this case - and keeping open the religious angle. AMW, IMO, is very hooked into the law enforcement community - so someone in that community must believe in the hate crime angle if AMW is pursuing that.

Yes, yes I've heard that many times that AMW is very in the loop.
I'm glad to see the show is still around, I'm usually out on Saturdays but happen to be home tonight by coincidence.

Something like 98% of quadruple-murders are solved in the US. It'd be a shame if this was not one of them.

How much more press do you think this story would be getting if it was a Muslim family murdered with a white American suspect?
