Bartow County press conference: http://www.cbsatlanta.com/automotive/276...etail.html
Her husband, Abed Sulieman, read statements from his wife during a press conference on Tuesday.
Wazineh Suleiman and Abed Sulieman had an arranged marriage. They met and fell in love at 17 and 18-years-old in Jerusalem. They were engaged in a month, and married in two.
Friday she originally lied to him and said she was sleeping, but he was home and knew she wasn't there. It’s a big no-no in the culture that you don't lie to a spouse. She was worried she'd be in trouble because she lied.
Abed Sulieman told her in a text message that he would kill her, didn't mean it. He told police that.
When she left on Friday, she had no intention to leave but after he realized she lied she felt he would never trust him again and everything was blown out of proportion.
She slept in truck where it was found the first night, Then she called a friend. Police took her to a shelter since Sat morning in Cobb County.
She told officer she was afraid and had nowhere to go. She felt like she had done a huge dishonor and disgrace to her family. She felt like she was as good as dead to family. But she came back because she wanted to.
The older Suleiman kids knew mom needed time away. Little ones thought she was out shopping. Abed Sulieman thinks this was God’s plan.
Wazineh Suleiman wants to let ladies know to communicate with spouses and be open and don't resort to lying.
Abed Sulieman admits that he pushed his wife in past (10 yrs ago) but he's never punched her. Said he hasn't touched her that way in years.
What a waste of time, effort, concern and resources. I hope the media outlets aren't paying for these interviews. If they are, I hope people don't watch them.
