A Washington couple accused of trying to strangle their teenage daughter in an alleged ‘honor killing’ outside a suburban high school have both been found not guilty of attempted murder.
Ihsan and Zahraa Ali stood trial for the shocking broad-daylight attack last fall outside Timberline High School in Lacey, Washington State where prosecutors said the pair tried to kill their 17-year-old daughter after she refused an arranged marriage.
After three days of deliberations, jurors convicted Ihsan Ali of assault and unlawful imprisonment.
Anyone remember this from last year?
No prosecution.
