I hope he gets what he deserves and his sons! This should not only our rage woman but any human should be disgusted and fed up with this barbaric treatment of any human being!
ReplyDeleteJordon usually only gives men 6 months in prison for honor killing. Queen Rania would never address this on youtube channel when asked repeatedly about the short prison sentences for honor killings. Apparently a women's life has less worth than stealing a goat.
