It ain't personal, it's just a cultural and religious thing.
The parents of a 16-year-old Texas high school student, Maarib Al Hishmawi, who was reported missing January 30, abused their child after she refused an arranged marriage. She ran away from home and was found mid-March, according to police.
Her parents, Abdulah Fahmi Al Hishmawi, 34, and Hamdiyah Saha Al Hishmawi, 33, are alleged to have beaten their teenage daughter with a broomstick and poured hot cooking oil on her when she refused to marry a man from another city.
The parents reportedly agreed to the marriage in exchange for $20,000.
"This young lady, at various times over that time period was subjected to some pretty bad abuse because she didn't want to be married to this person," Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar [no relation to Alberto Salazar, a three-time New York City Marathon winner in 1980, '81, and '82 and the Boston Marathon winnerJavier in 1982] said Friday, according to KSAT.
Salazar added: "At least at one point, she was choked almost to the point of unconsciousness."
This is not a good example of proper parenting, except in Islamic countries where it is considered a parental duty.
The girl and her five siblings, between ages 5 and 15, were placed under Child Protective Services custody.
The parents face charges of continuous violence against a family member and were taken into custody Friday. The potential husband to the girl may also face charges in the case.
But if they all play their politically correct cards right, they may be able to find a way to sue Texas for the inconvenience of having to abide by our laws.
Don't laugh, a New York City woman sued the city for $85,000 over a claim the NYPD confiscated her head covering, known as a hijab. The lawsuit is what is known as lawfare jihad, much like what the father of "Clock Boy" tried to do.
