New Developments in the Shaima Alawadi Case

Victim’s Daughter
Shaima Alawadi was found beaten last month in her home, and her daughter said she found  a note next to her body that read go back to your home country.  People speculated this was a hate crime.  Sadly, Shaima died within the week from her injuries.
I looked at the video of the victim’s daughter, Fatima, and immediately things did not sit right with me.  She had no tears, no facial muscles that indicate true sadness, no stress lines in the face, and she was saying her mother was taken away from her before she actually died. These are all indicators that what Fatima was telling us does not support what she actually feels.
Things are not what they seem.
I do not believe Fatima is being honest with us. I do not believe she is grieving in the video I reviewed last week.  Does that mean she is her mother’s killer?  It does not.  While I can spot signs that indicate deception, it would take a psychic to tell you what the person is lying about and I am not psychic.  Deception in this case could involve knowledge of the murder, or murderers.  That is all that can be said at this point.
New developments came out this week after sealed documents were accidentally released.  Here is what was found in those documents:
  1. The note found at the scene was not an original. It was a photocopy.
  2. A neighbor reported seeing a dark, thin young man exit the house around the time the attack took place.
  3. Fatima told police that she heard her mom squeal, and glass break, but she thought it was a plate (pretty far fetched, if you ask me).
  4. Shaima Alawadi, the victim, was contemplating a divorce.  She had the paperwork in her car.
  5. Shaima also had a troubled relationship with her daughter, Fatima.
  6. Fatima was found by officers allegedly having sex with a guy in a car, and her mother was called.  On the way home, Fatima jumped out of the car at 35 mph.
  7. In the hospital, Fatima confessed she was very upset she was going to be forced into an arranged marriage with her cousin.
  8. Police discovered a text message on Fatima’s phone when they were interviewing her about the attack on her mom.  It said, “The detective will find out tell them cnt talk.”

Also this in the past few days, a neighbor was interviewed by a local news station, and she thought it was really odd the sliding door was broken and fell outside of the house and not inside, which is notable!

It will be interesting to watch this case develop.  I do not believe Shaima was a victim of a random act of violence, or a hate-targeted crime by some stranger.  Nothing points to that at this time.
