A Jordanian who killed his divorced sister over rumors that she had a lover was cleared of premeditated murder because he acted in a "fit of rage," after his family dropped charges, the Jordan Times reported Thursday.
A disturbing story from Jordan. Honor killing is an issue that we often hear about, but just don't know how pervasive it is.
This story is a reminder that these barbaric killings continue to be an issue and therefore needs to be addressed more closely.
