The US’s largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization is calling for hate crime charges to be filed against a Texas woman accused of trying to drown a three-year-old Palestinian-American girl while saying that the child’s mother wasn’t really American.
For now, the suspect in the case has been booked on counts of attempted murder and injury to a child.
The case dates back to 19 May, when police in Euless, Texas, were called to an apartment complex swimming pool where there had been reports of a disturbance between two women, according to the local NBC affiliate.
Witnesses told police “a woman who was very intoxicated had tried to drown a child and argued with the child’s mother”, said a police news release reviewed by CNN.
