As the Jabara family mourns the death of Khalid Jabara in Tulsa, Oklahoma, we
remember a similar fatal shooting last year in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. In
2015, Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha and her husband, Deah
Shaddy Barakat, were shot dead by a white neighbor. Razan was 19 years old,
Yusor was 21, and Deah was 23. Police initially said the killings resulted from
a dispute over a parking space, but relatives of the victims described the
killings as a hate crime. The suspected gunman, Craig Stephen Hicks, has been
charged with three counts of first-degree murder. For more, we speak with Dr.
Mohammad Abu-Salha, father of Razan and Yusor, and father-in-law of Deah.
