Wealthy New York couple accused of keeping Slaves
How can this shit happen in the world today?:wtf:


A wealthy US couple accused of keeping two Indonesian women as slaves in a New York home and abusing them, have been granted bail under strict conditions.
A judge said Varsha Sabhnani, 35, and her husband, Mahender Sabhnani, 51, should remain under home detention pending the outcome of their trial.

The Indian-born couple were arrested last week after one of the women escaped from their Long Island home. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6708377.stm

3. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
This is OLD news. It's tragic and inciteful, but it is not as emphatic as the "caging voter" story that the MSM refuses to report.

In truth, thousands of voters were not literally caged like these two women, but they were ALL denied their vote or say in our current form of democracy.
