Hi Mary. Good read, albeit very sad and disgusting. The reality is that these "honor killings" take place far too often. They are cruel and barbaric, and I wish that authorities would do more to put a stop to them. Like incarcerate the offenders FOREVER. But that's in a perfect world. Women have enough challenges here in the US, let alone in countries where they take a back seat to men. Absolutely dispicable. Stay well, Mary!
