Defiant murder suspect says Allah is her attorney, threatens all in 'Masonic Courthouse'

Posted: Thursday, July 18, 2013 11:55 am | Updated: 6:22 pm, Thu Jul 18, 2013.

Investigators tracked down and arrested a woman they say killed a 66-year-old local businessman in a brutal attack in his own home, and Thursday she showed in court that she isn't afraid of making threats.

Sahara Tabriz Fakhir, 32, of River Run Drive in Douglasville, appeared before Douglas County Superior Court Judge Robert J. James in what was a bizarre initial appearance hearing. The hearing was to formally inform Fakhir of her rights and to read the charges against her – allegations that she stabbed Jerry Wheeler repeatedly and left him for dead June 18.

    She should pray to allah that she goes before the same judge that granted bail to Zach Shipp who poisoned his friend, watched him die, instead of getting him medical attention that may have saved his life, and then dumped his body at a dumpster. That judge is probably foolish enough to let her out of jail. That would also give the Sentinel another story to report on later when she kills someone else, as I'm sure Zach Shipp will do. Who was that judge anyway?
