Who hid and protected Texas honor killer Yaser Said for 12 long years?

33

At long last, Yaser Said, who shot and killed his two daughters Amina and Sarah in a cold-blooded honor killing, has been apprehended.

12 long years later, Amina and Sarah Said’s murdering father has been arrested…. in Texas. The network that protected him should be brought to justice and indicted as well.

He was in Texas all along.

We covered the Said honor killing extensively, and it was apparent, right from the start, that Said had help, a lot of help, in evading justice.

Sisters, Amina, 18, and Sarah, 17, were each shot to death by their father in the back of his cab. They were lured back home after running away to escape their brutal father.

“Oh my God, I’m dying,” were 17-year-old Sarah Said’s last words, recorded in a harrowing 911 call released by Irving Police in Texas, United States of America.

After a series of death threats and allegations of physical and sexual abuse, on New Year’s Day in 2008, Sarah Said and her sister Amina Said were found brutally murdered in their father’s taxi in Texas.

At the time of their murder, friends of the girls said their father was Egyptian Muslim and critical of popular American lifestyles.

“He was really strict about guy relationships and talking to guys, as well as the things she wears,” said Kathleen Wong, a friend of the dead teenagers. “I’m sure that it was her dad that killed her.”

Wong says the girl’s father was abusive and that Sarah, especially, lived in fear. “She’s always told me that she was always so scared of her dad,” says Wong. “Even at school if a teacher joked around like, ‘I’m gonna tell your parents about this’, she would like totally flip out and start crying like, ‘please don’t tell’.”

In her recorded 911 call, Sarah named her father as the killer.

Yasar Said shot them because of anger over their dating of non-Muslim boys and their Western lifestyle.

”He followed them everywhere, and he recorded their every move,” said Ruth Trotter, a family friend, of home videos that show the father with his two teen daughters before their violent deaths in December 2007.

Yaser Said had an underground network protecting him. They, too, must be prosecuted.

Police said double-homicide suspect Yasar Said may be in hiding locally, receiving help from an inexplicably supportive community despite the horrific crimes he is accused of.

For years after the murders, their violent brother, Islam, would threaten, stalk, and harass anyone who pursued their killer.

FBI Ten Most Wanted Fugitive Yaser Abdel Said Now in Custody

FBI,

Yaser Abdel Said, a capital murder suspect wanted in connection with the homicide of his two teenage daughters, Amina and Sarah, was taken into custody without incident today in Justin, Texas, by the FBI’s Dallas Field Office. Said was placed on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list on December 4, 2014. Said is currently in federal custody and will soon be transferred to Dallas County.

“The FBI-led Dallas Violent Crimes Task Force has worked tirelessly to find Yaser Abdel Said. These experienced investigators never gave up on their quest to find him and pledged to never forget the young victims in this case,” said FBI Dallas Special Agent in Charge Matthew DeSarno. “Said was placed on the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives List nearly six years ago for the heinous act he committed against his daughters. His capture and arrest bring us one step closer to justice for Amina and Sarah. We want to thank our partners at the Irving Police Department for working with us to apprehend this dangerous individual.”

“On January 1, 2008, the Irving Police Department opened a murder investigation after two young girls were found shot to death. Since that night, the members of the Irving Police Department and our partners with the Dallas FBI have tirelessly pursued justice for Amina and Sarah,” said Irving Police Chief Jeff Spivey. “Even after 12 years of frustration and dead ends, the pursuit for their killer never ceased. Today’s arrest of their father, Yaser Said brings us closer to ensuring justice is served on their behalf.”

Said took his daughters Amina (18) and Sarah (17) for a ride in his taxicab on January 1, 2008, under the guise of taking them to get something to eat. He drove them to Irving, Texas, where he allegedly shot both girls inside the taxicab. They both died of multiple gunshot wounds.

Based on an investigation by the Irving Police Department, on January 2, 2008, a capital murder-multiple warrant was issued for Said’s arrest. On August 21, 2008, a federal unlawful flight to avoid prosecution warrant was issued by the United States District Court, Northern District of Texas.

The search for Said was coordinated by the FBI’s Dallas Violent Crimes Task Force, which is composed of FBI special agents and officers from the Carrollton, Dallas, Garland, Grand Prairie, and Irving Police Departments and the Texas Department of Public Safety.

One wonders how many of those who protected this animal for 12 years are white liberals.

THIS is how our FBI should be; not interfering in elections and framing people. and not protecting corrupt entitled low quals like Biden and Obama.

Nor should the Fecal Bureau of Islamisation be facilitating muslum terrorism (cough, Garland, TX, cough).

When it comes to who was hiding and protecting Yaser Abdel Said from being caught all these years, there are two likely groups of suspects that need to be investigated. One group is Yaser Said’s family members and close relatives, the other group is fellow Muslims from the Muslim community. Among these two groups are the people who protected and hid Yaser Said all these years. This Muslim practice of honor killing must not be tolerated in the United States.

How would you go about setting the standard for what constitutes “devout”. Furthermore, what do you do with muslums who merely pretend to be “secular”? Or don’t you think muslums are smart enough to lie and dissimulate to the stupid kafir?

There are a lot of things that could be done, primarily aimed at not pandering and not using public funds to pander to Muslims. This is just a preliminary list of small things:
1. No face coverings.
2. No special time off at workplaces for prayer. It is not done for Christians or anyone else.
3. No foot baths in public restrooms. They can bring disposable wipes for their feet if they prefer. And BTW this is NOT standard of practice in Turkey or in Iran! And public funds have been used to accomplish this.
4. No Halal food forced upon the general public.
5. Forced closure of mosques found to be linked with terrorist activity.
6. No tax breaks should be given for mosques because Islam is not purely a religion. It is a political movement as well and should be treated as such.

I think all these ideas are good and would make some difference in the short term but in the long term, as the muslums gain more political power and influence, they would just undo everything you’ve done and more. Demographics are destiny.

I think mass deportation of the muslum vermin is the only answer, perhaps the total destruction of islamic petrocracies. Because their religion is based on lies and sacralises lying you can never trust them. It’s really petrodollars, petropounds, petrofrancs, petroeuros, petroyen, petrodeutzchemarks that are the only thing giving them the leverage to spread their vile death cult across the world.

I like that idea best but I suspect that it would be met with too much accusation of racism and our feckless leaders will not have the strength of character to defend it.

Fed Bureau of Islam took 12 years to find a Muslim killer who lived under their noses? That’s either beyond incompetent or deliberate. They are not incompetent. Further proof of who the deep state works for, and it ain’t us

Such dishon(o)ur or dishonorable killings are all too common on both sides of the Atlantic in self-created 3rd world muslim ghettoes. The chattering classes, so-called progressives in the lamestream media & the feminazi brigades have too often turned a blind eye to the misogyny inherent in islam. The deceit & hypocrisy in the authorities’ shameful response to the mass rapes of troubled white girls by pedostani muslims in far too many British citiies was indicative of the treacherous mindset of the people in charge.

In this case like in many others of the kind, in view of the fact that that “male” who was responsible for the sisters arrival on earth did what he did to them because he viewed them as his “property” and thus not deserving of any civil or human rights in America, would deserve to have an unfortunate meeting with a bullet or two from someone concerned that these things have to be discouraged in others like him.

That the law so far has failed those girls is clear, and who frames the law ?

If the political elite cannot or will not address these cultural and misogynistic urges in the immigrant communities then perhaps it’s incumbent for broader concerned society to take a more effective and functional role.

The lives and well being of other young people depend upon this.

The death penalty is too mild for this sub-human refuse. Lock him up in a cell with a dozen parents of Christian and Jewish children murdered by Muslims fanatics. They’ll think of something.

Stories such as this keep cropping up and yet people are surprised that this happens, especially when it is muslims now living in the West.

A story from a few years ago about a man who drove his car into a lock and drowned his daughters. They “dishonoured” the family by dressing in Western clothes, secretly went out with boys, and listened to Western music. This was in Canada.

Finally they got this monster. This is a very hateful aspect of Islam that it allows such honor killings. A manual of Islamic law certified as a reliable guide to Sunni orthodoxy by Al-Azhar University, says that “retaliation is obligatory against anyone who kills a human being purely intentionally and without right.”
However, “not subject to retaliation” is “a father or mother (or their fathers or mothers) for killing their offspring, or
offspring’s offspring.” (‘Umdat al-Salik o1.1-2).

In other words, someone who kills his child incurs no legal penalty under Islamic law.

“Inexplicably supportive community”? Seriously?

Anyone who still thinks it’s some kind of a mystery that a MUSLIM murderer like this would be hidden and “supported”? By every single muslim and/or “muslim community” in the whole world? Is brain dead.

I remember some ten years ago a muslum woman died under mysterious circumstances (I believe somewhere in Caliphornia), the investigation into her death determined she had beat herself to death (a rather unique form of suicide in anyone’s book).

Moslems always claim that honor killings (and forced marriages) have nothing to do with Islam and are not condoned by Islam, yet they never act on getting perpetrators arrested and punished or offering assistance to girls and women being abused, threatened, and terrorized by their families. Or if they do act, their fellow Moslems turn on them. Really speaks volumes, does it not?
