There’s a cheap joke in there, but I won’t say it.
when you’re a moose, women are strictly second class. you would have thought this charity minded chap would have treated his housekeeper more respectfully, but no.
Under Islamic law, to prove a rape case, you need four eyewitnesses.
“And they considered it inconceivable that an Indonesian maid was considered a competent witness in our courts.”
Another significant difference is how civil and criminal courts mesh under Saudi law, making it possible for a victim or a victim’s family to come to a financial settlement when it involves a criminal matter. “They didn’t understand how that wasn’t possible here,” Suthers said.

In a total exception to all the rules, Colorado Attorney General John Suthers flew to Saudi Arabia to explain Al-Turki’s trial and punishment
“insists he is innocent and a victim of anti-Muslim sentiment”
...and it worked!
He did exactly what they do in Saudi.
Scum, he needs imprisoned for life!
Money talks...............
Behold the newest protected class.
Do not vote to retain !
Give him a burkaed wife of his choice and let him go for crying out loud!
That cheap slut of a housekeeper probably showed her face after showing her love to him anyway! /great big gobs of sarcasm intended
Our justice system is subject to political decisions and Saudi money. It would be a shame if prison justice had to substitute for official justice.

The resentencing occurred in late February. Among other crimes, He was convicted for unlawful sexual contact with force. I believe his conviction was a class 4 felony for a sexual crime making him eligible for indeterminate incarceration. As of 2009, of the approximately 1600 inmates sentenced since the enactment of the Colorado Sex Offender Lifetime Supervision Act since 1998 only 20 have been paroled. He will have performed a Houdini Act to get out of jail with only half of his minimum sentence served.
The desires of Al Turki’s backers would be thwarted if he were to be killed by another prisoner.
In his home country ,he would have long become camel fodder.
