LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. Prosecutors say a suburban Atlanta man circumcised his 2-year-old daughter with a pair of scissors to avoid bringing shame on his family. The defense blames his wife, her mother and a nasty divorce case. Khalid Adem, who is on trial this week in Gwinnett County, could face 40 years in prison if convicted. Assistant District Attorney Marty First acknowledged that Adem, who was born in Ethiopia, is from a culture that practices female circumcision.
