THE NOOSE FOR MENTALLY ILL MUSLIM GIRL


J. Grant Swank, Jr.

She’s an Iranian teen used by her mother as a prostitute during pre-teen years.
Today she, teen-ager but with a mental age of eight, will be killed by the government unless a miracle happens. She faces the death penalty on charges of prostitution.
