A little over a week ago, ^ Khashoggi walked into the consulate general in Istanbul, Turkey.
He was intending to get paperwork that would allow him to marry his Turkish fiancée, who was waiting in the car outside the consulate.  Khashoggi never came back to the car.
Officials and journalists have scrambled to piece together the story of what happened to Jamal Khashoggi ever since.
Turkish authorities have privately said they believe Khashoggi was killed inside the consulate, a startling allegation that is firmly denied by the Saudis.
Closed-circuit television footage, flight trackers, intercepted communications and even rumors of a bone saw have served as pieces of a puzzle that has spurred a diplomatic outcry for the U.S. and western countries to cut off ties and deals with Saudi Arabia.
At this time, the Trump administration has not cut off ties or the multi-billion dollar arms deal to Saudi Arabia. However, some major private international companies and media networks have done so.
