Female Afghan 'Veejay' Murdered
(Kabul, Afghanistan) After the fall of the Taliban, Shaima Rezayee, 24, immediately discarded her burkha and became a video journalist for Kabul's answer to MTV. In this capacity, she hosted an hour-long music and chat show airing videos of Western singers which outraged conservative Muslims. Two months ago, Rezayee was fired due to pressure from Islamic mullahs. This week, she was murdered in her home by an unknown assailant. The killing is believed to be linked to her time as a veejay.

You know what's even more sick? Her family is suspected in aiding and possibly even executing the murder.

Martha Quinn will avenge her death. May a stink not unlike a newborn's formula based feces diaper infest the killers tent.
