(WFAA) In Yaser Said’s telling, he’s the victim — a victim of a media narrative that painted him as the killer of his two daughters.
Said testified that’s why he fled after his daughters, Amina and Sarah, were found shot to death inside a cab on New Year’s Day in 2008.
“Behind this coverage, there was a secret agenda,” he said. “All the media was stirred in a certain direction and fueled against me.”
Said denied having killed his daughters and implied that one of their friends must have done it. He testified that he did not believe he would get a fair trial.
“The coverage for this case was kind of abnormal, one of its kind and maybe harsh,” Said testified.
