Hickenlooper Administration Mulls Release of Saudi Sex Offender
Observer ^ | March 4, 2013

Posted on 03/04/2013 9:16:20 PM PST by george76

A convicted Saudi felon who was sentenced to 28 years in prison after being convicted by a Colorado jury for imprisoning his housekeeper and holding her as a sex slave could soon be released from prison.

Homaidan al-Turki, a Saudi citizen whose 2006 case made headlines and triggered national outrage when he was arrested for imprisoning and sexually abusing his maid in the basement of his Aurora home, has asked to be repatriated to Saudi Arabia under the terms of a bilateral treaty.

If the Hickenlooper administration agrees to the request, al-Turki could return to Saudi Arabia after serving less than one third of his original sentence in the United States.

...

During his trial, al-Turki argued that he was a victim of anti-Muslim bias. “We are Muslim. We are different. The state has criminalized these basic Muslim behaviors ... "

...

many, including Jihad Watch Director Robert Spencer, say that if al-Turki is allowed to return to Saudi Arabia, he may escape punishment for his crimes.

“Slavery, including sexual slavery, is sanctioned in Islamic law,” said Spencer. “Thus… what Homaidan al-Turki is accused of doing is not criminal activity in Saudi Arabia.”

...

In addition to his conviction on the false imprisonment and sex offenses, al-Turki has come under scrutiny for his ties to Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical Islamist cleric and al-Qaeda operative ...

Al-Awlaki was involved in numerous terrorist attacks against the United States, including the massacre of U.S. soldiers at Fort Hood and a failed attempt to blow up an airplane on Christmas Day in 2009.

They better hurry. Hopefully he’ll be able to buy an assault weapon using the famous gun show loophole before LickenLooper signs the new anti gun bill in to law.

P.S. Look out for those huge lines at the airport that didn’t materialize today. Liars are liars.

Looks like he was trying to use his religion as a defense. I wonder if even he realizes that it casts his religion in a bad light.

Where’s the NOW Gang / NAGs when a libtard such as ChickenPooper is considering doing something this heinous? Oh that’s right, abuse of women by Muzzies is not an issue, nor are corrupt ‘RAT politicians.

If I were sheriff in the county this man would only be sent back to SA on literal ice....

His choice would be, serve out his term in jail here or go home now with a terminal case of rigor mortis...

Looks like Hickenlooper and the Democrats are “really” looking out for womens’ safety. Yeah right.

Nothing worst than a Rocky Mountain Oyster than a Rocky Mountain Red.

Do you think he would care? Fear is the muzzies greatest friend. If muzzies all over the country can get away with this crime, then what is to stop them from beheading infidels which their pedophile loving religion allows?

Remember the hags outrage over Senator Packwood 20+ years ago?

I guess BJ Clinton cured that.

Easy compromise; leave his man parts here, sent the rest of him to Saudi.

No, such behavior was criminal long before you ever moved your sorry ass to Colorado.
