The article says that 2 sources say that the Saudi government is preparing to release a report saying that Jamal Khashoggi was killed in an interrogation gone wrong. It also says that its likely that they will say that the action was carried out without orders and that those involved will be punished. Then the article describes the situation with Jamal and the effects it has had on Saudi Arabia.
This happened very recently and right now countries are increasingly protecting human rights so this event is shocking to a lot of people. This was written for people who care about the world around them and like to know whats going on to update them on the current situation regarding this case. The article was written by Clarissa Ward and her bias does not affect the body of the article but toward the end her bias sneaks in. This is important because it reminds us that not everyone has the same kind of life that we have and sometimes people are killed by the government.
I just read Jude's current event post on this same topic, commenting on how I thought that the government killed Khashoggi. Reading your post just reassures this, and I am honestly not surprised with the report. While I am saddened to know this information, I know that there have been many times in the past where it's been believed that a given individual has been "killed off" by the U.S. government, so the fact that this is against the Saudi Arabian government, I'm just not surprised. I said surprised way too many times even though it was only twice *sweats*

This is one of the only times that I will remember to be thankful for our justice department. Getting killed during an interrogation is not something one would generally worry about in America and I am thankful for that. Anyone can have their complaints about how people are incriminated in this country, but at least we wont die in the interrogation room.
