“My country is facing a war, and we are facing that hate here. My daughter is traumatized; whenever I open the apartment door, she runs away and hides, telling me she is afraid the lady will come and immerse her head in the water again.”

That’s the worst thing I’ve read all day. No one deserves that kind of trauma, let alone a 3-year-old little girl. I hope the attacker, Elizabeth Wolf, rots in prison.

It’s a travesty that she was allowed bail at all. She has already established that she is extremely violent and poses a clear threat to the community and a continued threat to the victim and her family. While police were arresting her, she said, “Tell her I will kill her and I will kill her whole family.” What the fuck does it take to get bail denied in Texas?

Sure ought to be easy to prove it’s a hate crime. What a horrible, horrible person. What the hell is wrong with people? How can you get yourself to a point where you think it’s okay to murder a 3-year-old girl?

I saw this headline earlier, except they chose to exclude any mention that the girl was Palestinian-American, or Muslim (example).
