Teacher Drank Poison Over Facebook Pics |
|
This is so sad. Emma Jones was working in Abu Dhabi when one of her colleagues spotted the explicit images on the networking website, the Cardiff hearing was told. The 24-year-old was frightened of being jailed in the strict Muslim country after the male co-worker accused her of being a prostitute, her mother claimed. http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News/Naked-Facebook-Death-Emma-Jones-UK-Teacher-Drank-Poison-In-Abu-Dhabi-After-Alleged-Web-Scandal/Article/201002415559290?lpos=UK_News_First_UK_News_Article_Teaser_Region_1&lid=ARTICLE_15559290_Naked_Facebook_

2. No, the lesson is that crazy religious laws serve no purpose other than to hurt and kill. |

And more often than not, the victims are women.

The police don't exactly spend all day on FB. Let's hope anyway
Even if someone had pointed this out (i.e. reported it) they would have arrested her at that time, not on the way to the airport.
This is a tragedy and a waste.
Please note that SKY and FOX are one in the same.

5. If you're willing to go to Saudi Arabia |
|
especially if you are a woman, and are not part of a military deployment, then you have issues.
No fucking way I'd set foot in any predominantly Muslim country these days.

6. Abu Dhabi is nowhere close to Saudi Arabia in terms of laws |
|
and enforcement.
The absolute total worst thing that 'might' happen would be deportation.

10. Odd story..start to finish |
|
If she left "they would jail her".. who is "they"? If she LEFT, who would "they" get "their" hands on her to jail her?
She was packing to LEAVE..and THEN decided to kill herself?
nude pics don't necessarily equal prostitution
face book does not allow nude pics (or so I've been told)
......
Memo to the young'uns..
I KNOW your nubile, fresh young body looks fantastic, but please resist the temptation to photograph it..or to have it photographed. Those "private, personal, pictures always find their way into the hands of others, and WILL come back to haunt you.. Just keep the memory of how damned fine you look(ed) in your brain, and in the brains of the ones you choose to see it:)
