CLEVELAND (AP) A Muslim woman who says she was forced to attend Christian church services during a 60-day jail stint on an assault charge has sued the county.
Sakeena Majeed said in a federal lawsuit filed Thursday that a correction officer made her and other Cuyahoga County jail inmates attend Friday afternoon services led by a Baptist minister. She alleged that she was threatened with solitary confinement if she did not attend and that another correction officer mocked her when she refused to actively participate.

At gunpoint?
I hate Ohio Muslims.
***during a 60-day jail stint on an assault charge. ***
Since when does a jailbird get to dictate the rules of their incarceration? Don’t like it? Don’t do the crime!
If false...
We don't have the whole story here.
Asserting her Muslim privilege against Christian micro aggression.
well I don’t believe in forced church attendance (but it sure couldn’t hurt a Moslem!)
Oh, the horror!
“she was forced to attend Christian church services during a 60-day jail stint”
Outrageous! We must be more civilized and humane—perhaps adopting the mohammedan practice of beheading an infidel like her instead?
Is she an original muslim or a converted muslim?
I’m certainly not on her side, philosophically , but it sure seems a dumb thing for the corrections officers to do.
Can’t beat your comment!
Here's my guess: Black Converted (could be first timer but doubtful)
Yeah, a law enforcement organization forcing someone to participate in religious services under threat of punishment sure seems like a government establishment of religion.
Huh ? ? ?
Who is the "them" in that sentence?
Think carefully
They always should be put in a jail cell that is next to a cell holding a rogue pig.
Send her entire lineage to freaking Syria ASAP!
Go to Saudi Arabia since the USA is soooo oppressive to Muslims.
My only reply is, She still has her head doesn’t she? Enough said.
I was an OPPRESSED Muzzie....!!!
