Beheaded first, then body dismembered one limb at a time, blood still hot, pieces expertly put in to bags.

They likely have done it before.

Whatever will Trump do now. He's an accomplice as well as Jared.

Enough is enough.

As we all know, there's at least one justice on the Supreme Court who doesn't think the president is liable to criminal prosecution. Accessory to murder? Let us not criminalize political differences! After all, we can argue all day long about who dismembered who and who might have known about it ahead of time, but the fact of the matter is that Brett's real grrrr mad! about having to listen to a bunch of impertinent questions and you should be, too!

Now, can we get back to the important things, like who Donald Trump is name-calling today? Later, the rest of us can all get lectured on civility.

At a minimum the counsel general and so called doctor need to be tried for these crimes

that it is believed that the murderers took the body parts with them when they left. The body parts have probably been scattered in some ocean.

This is premeditated murder since they brought a bone saw and an autopsy specialist.

That said...I'm not hearing this being discussed in New Media.....

Seems rather simple, basic in questioning...but...no one askes....

The ideology has only been around since the 1700s and likely were assisted by the British (see Confessions of a British Spy) who wanted to bring down the Ottoman Empire

They both have a husband with the same range of penalties. Al Qaeda and ISIS are probably a little less hypocritical than the House of Saud

Of course, it always briefly seems sad to us when this sort of thing occurs, but we can always send our thoughts and prayers to the family while we try to avoid any political repercussions. It is, after all, entirely unavoidable; and we certainly do not want the Saudis to feel that we love them less than our sweetheart, North Korea's esteemed leader!"
