In these days of rampant FBI corruption, it’s illuminating to remember that back in 2008, the FBI dropped its designation of these murders as an “honor killing.”
That’s what it was, but the FBI didn’t want to appear “Islamophobic.” Now that the agency has entirely gone rogue, it’s important to remember that the seeds of its corruption were planted years ago.
WFAA was more honest in June 2021, when it reported that “police believe Yaser Said was angry his daughters were dating boys who were non-Muslim and killed them.” That’s in accord with Islamic law, which forbids Muslim women from marrying non-Muslim men. This was no new revelation: back in January 2008, the Dallas Morning News reported that the girls’ mother Patricia had said (regarding Amina) that “since they are Muslim that the daughter was only allowed to date other Muslims. Yaser had found out she went on a date with a non-Muslim and became very angry and threatened her with bodily harm.”
“Ex-FBI ‘Top 10 Most Wanted’ suspect Yaser Said convicted of Texas ‘honor killing’ deaths of 2 daughters,” by Stephanie Pagones, Fox News, August 9, 2022:
One of the FBI’s former top 10 most-wanted suspects was convicted of capital murder on Tuesday, more than 12 years after allegedly carrying out “honor killings” against his two daughters in Texas.
Yaser Said, 65, was found guilty of capital murder in the deaths of 18-year-old Amina Said and 17-year-old Sarah Said. Prosecutors did not pursue the death penalty, meaning Yaser Said receives an automatic life sentence.
Prosecutor Lauren Black said at trial that Said was “obsessed with possession and control.”
The sisters were found shot to death in a taxi parked near a hotel in the Dallas, Texas suburb of Irving on New Year’s Day in 2008. Jurors heard a 911 call Sarah Said made by cellphone, telling the operator that her father had shot her and that she was dying.
“Help,” said a crying voice on the 911 recording, later determined by police to be that of Sarah Said. “I’m dying. Oh my God. Stop it.”
Sarah Said was shot nine times and Amina Said was shot twice….
In a letter written to the judge, Said wrote that he was not happy with his daughters’ “dating activity” but he denied killing them.
On Monday, Said told jurors that he did not kill his daughters. He said he fled the taxi he was driving that evening because he thought they were being followed and someone wanted to kill him. He said he did not turn himself in to authorities because he feared he would not get a fair trial.
In a Dec. 21, 2007, email that was brought into evidence, Amina Said told a teacher that she and her sister planned to run away. She said they didn’t want to live by the culture of their father, who was born in Egypt, nor did they want arranged marriages, as he planned. Her father, she said, had “made our lives a nightmare.”
“He will, without any drama nor doubt, kill us,” the email read….

Maybe he’ll be ‘Jeffrey Dahmered’ in prison.

Hopefully!
Ray Jarman says
If I remember correctly, Said’s son assisted him to evade capture. I wonder why he has not been arrested for aiding after the fact as he certainly knew his father had just committed the heinous crime.
somehistory says
His son was already tried and sentenced for his part.

“Islam Said Sentenced to 10 Years for Concealing ‘10 Most Wanted’ Suspect from Arrest”

One of the prosecutors did call it an ‘honor killing” and explained what that meant to the jury. The jury was told because the girls didn’t want to abide by ways the killer wanted them to live, it supposedly brought “dishonor” to him.
So, the fbi may no longer be calling it that, but the prosecutor did. And the attorney for the slime creature said he was being tried due to his “culture and faith.” Of course, if the story he told about running away to escape a person wanting to kill him had been true, then he would have no worry about not getting a “fair trial.” and running away….if he had run for the *reason* he claimed…would have been selfishly leaving his daughters to be killed; and since they were in his cab, that story was balderdash from the get-go.
I am glad the jury saw the truth and I hope the prison inmates are told about his raping of his beautiful daughters and then killing them when the older one didn’t want to be sold into marriage.
and the woman who took them from OK back to him, should live the rest of her life in shame. they had escaped.
Michael Copeland says
The description in court of the murders as “honor-killings” is a plus. Remember the difficulty people had in the case of Rifqa Bary? None of the judiciary, or , for that matter, the public and the media was prepared to believe that she was in danger of being killed. The hideous truth penny is slowly dropping. Gradually there is a growing awareness of Islam’s ruthless rules. The troubling aspect is how long it is taking.
somehistory says
I agree. The more people are aware of what it’s all about, the chances improve for these girls to keep living and for the whole ugly truth about isalm to be revealed.
gravenimage says
Good for the prosecutor for calling this an honor killing.
And this is true about Rifqa Bary. If she had not turned 18 during the trial, she may well have been sent back to her murderous father.
Andrew Blackadder says
If that low life of a Father was upset with his daughters he could just have disowned them, told them to get out of his house and never return but he decided he should kill them both.
Like that made some kind of sense to him.
Let this be a lesson to those who have some tolerance towards what islam teaches, learn from this,as this is a new version of Nazism coming to a Town near you.
These days Life in Prison does not mean he will spend the rest of his life in Prison as this scumbag will get free Dental Care, free health care and will be out in 15 years.
Hank says
What in **** are Muslims doing in non-Muslim countries if their culture hates the country, the culture and the people so much?
Texas should sentence him to an “honor-execution”
Islam is incompatible with human life and rational thinking. It simply warps the mind.
David M says
The father will be regretting migrating to the US when he is rotting in jail. He will be thinking how he could just honor kill the daughters in a Muslim country & get away with it.

Hank, they are here to turn the West into the same kind of hopeless crap holes they came from. But yes–it didn’t work out for Yaser Said the way he’d hoped…

Yaser Said’s “defense” was absurd. He said that he’d wanted to take his daughters to dinner, but someone was following him, so he’d left, leaving his daughters alone with the supposed killer. Before he went, he supposedly told them “Do what you want. You know how to drive”.
This is obvious bs. Not only is leaving your children to face a threat an appalling “defense”, but it also makes no sense. If you are in a working automobile and you are threatened you drive away–you don’t get out of the vehicle and walk. Even as bullsh*t excuses go, this is terribly lame. And he still showed no concern over his dead children, as he would surely do it he were not lying.
Walter Sieruk says
That cruel vicious Muslim father who murdered who very own two daughters should be executed by the State government of Texas for his malicious crime he committed against his daughter.
That Muslim fiend of “father” should preferably be put to death by a firing squad since he had used a firearm to murder his daughters in cold blood.
What that heinous “father” did was a brutal despicable horrendous crime and affront to value all that of human life as well as a horrible violation of all that is good decent and right.
”
That this Muslim monster “father” Yaser Said should be put to death for his crime of those two murders that he committed is upheld by the Bible ,Exodus 21:12. ,Romans 13:1-4.
For murdering his two helpless and defenceless daughters that awful evil man after he dies will have his name rot. As the Bible also informs it’s readers “The name of the wicked shall rot.” Proverbs 10:7.

I don’t know why the state of Texas did not seek the death penalty. This was a planned first degree murder that involved luring the victims back, that involved more than one victim, and the perp fled following his crime.

I surmise that it is because he is mozlum. and the DA didn’t want to cause a mozlum riot. There are a lot of mozlums in the Metroplex…and we know from clockboy that c.a.i.rats have a very large footprint there.

We all know facts are a big challenge to corporate media.

Well, they did say “more than 12”–but this is very odd phrasing.
Walter Sieruk says
That this brutal monstrous Muslim father murdered to two teenage daughters for dating non- Muslim boys in a ruthless vicious action so inappropriately called in the Islamic world ‘”honor killing “is most evil.
For there is no “honor”, at all, in such savage brutal actions.
That his daughter disappointed him ,so he murdered them , against proves that the saying is true which is that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.” In reality there is no real excuse for what that malicious heatless wicked “man” did.
Likewise his horrendously Islamic actions also proves true the statement by Brigitte Gabriel in her book entitled THEY MUST BE STOPPED in which she informs her reader that “Control of behavior and disregard for human life are key elements in Islamic ideology.” page 171.
Further on the very next page it reads ” Women in Islam are considered unclean, deemed inferior even to dirt.”
Truly, Islam is a religion of brutal , cruel deadly misogyny.
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
Take his daughters to dinner? Yeah, more like to their last supper. He was obsessed with possession and control? More like he was obsessed with Islam. How much longer do we have to dance around the Islamic elephant in the livingroom? Again, this points out the fact that Islam poses the most dangerous existential threat to Muslim women, by any measure. We must put a stop to this Muslim on Muslim racism!

Why didn’t the prosecutor press for the death-penalty? 🤨 This lowlife lived like a rat in basements for 10-15 years, to avoid being caught — and there are reports of him *still* being proud of his actions during that time. He will not mind jail time, in fact it might even be an upgrade for him. I am disappointed in Texas — I was *convinced* he’s gonna get what he deserves over there… good thing it didn’t happen in Scandinavia at least, they would’ve put him up in a hotel. 🙄
