Here's my favorite ramp for the day excerpted from our podcast which you can find over at

Tom Harbin.com.

Okay everybody we are back on the Tom Hartman program.

This is Richard R.J. S-C Escole sitting in for Tom if you want to know more about me my program is the

zero hour with R.J.escal. This is the zero hour

dot com or you can find me at our future.org.

In this hour we're going to talk at least at the top of the hour

about a very different story,

but I think an important one that has gotten under reported

and yet has significance even beyond the case itself and that is the case of

Nure Salman.

Nour Salman is the widow of the pulse shooter and she on Friday was acquitted of charges that she was complicit in his

act of violence. There are many overtones to this story and our next guest has written

about it, I think, and touched on a number of those issues.

Maha Ahmed is a journalist and a fellow with the intercept.

Her piece on Nore Salman was entitled,

the prosecution of Nore Salman.

Paul's shooter's widow highlights

the criminalization of domestic abuse survivors, and she

joins us now.

So first of all, Maha, thanks for coming on the program.

Yeah, thanks for coming on the program.
