Patricia Said, the wife of the murder Yaser Abdel Said, is the source of this information. As I noted here, this is a woman who admitted in 2008 — after her husband had killed their two daughters — that her husband had threatened to kill one of her daughters for dating a non-Muslim. Then, after that, she converted to Islam. What kind of a mindset could Patricia Owens Said possibly have had that would have induced her to join the religion that seems to have played a role in leading her husband to murder their daughters? Could it have been because she was in touch with Yaser and was signaling her acquiescence to and approval of his act? Did she have some other involvement? Will investigators look into this possibility, or would that be “Islamophobic”?
“Texas cabbie accused in ‘honor killing’ of teenage daughters didn’t want to raise ‘whores,’ wife recalled,” by Yael Halon, Fox News, August 28, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Fox News investigates what happened the night Egyptian-born cab driver Yaser Said allegedly killed his 2 daughters for dating out of their culture
The Texas cab driver accused of murdering his two teenage daughters more than a decade ago was unhappy that they were dating non-Muslims and was unwilling to raise “whores as daughters,” according to his family.
Yaser Abdel Said, 63, of Lewisville, was apprehended Wednesday after more than 12 years on the FBI’s “Top Ten” list of most-wanted fugitives.
His wife, Patricia “Tissie” Owens, told Fox News that her husband became upset after learning that his daughters Amina and Sarah, ages 18 and 17 respectively, had started dating non-Muslims, and shared rare details about their death and Said’s disappearance in the Fox Nation special “A Question of Honor.”
Owens said the family was celebrating New Year’s Day 2008, when Said invited Amina and Sarah out to eat.
“I told him I wanted to go with him,” she said. “He said ‘No, I just want to talk to the girls and we’ll be back in a little bit.’ I didn’t think anything of it,” an emotional Owens recalled to Gregg Jarrett.
Said told Owens that he would be taking their daughters to a local Denny’s, but instead drove them to Irving, where he allegedly shot them inside his borrowed cab in what were described as “honor killings.”
Owens sat at home waiting for her family’s return when the police knocked on her door, she recalled.
“They said they got a 911 tip of a female saying she had been shot and the phone is registered to this address, and I told them that my daughters were with their dad and they were going to a Denny’s.”
Unable to reach Said, Owens called his brother pleading for information about the whereabouts of her husband and children.
“He said he didn’t know,” she recollected, “but he said Yaser didn’t want to raise whores as daughters.”
While Said remained on the run, Owens and her oldest son Islam moved in with his family. It became clear during those two months that some of Said’s siblings not only believed he killed his daughters, but defended his alleged motives for doing so.
“Just hearing them talk and being around them the months that I was, I picked up on things,” she said. ” One of his brothers told me that I was really lucky that he [Said] left their bodies for me to find, for me to put my girls to rest. If it was him, nobody would find his girls.”…
