Arraignment for Saudi princess delayed after failure to show up for hearing

SANTA ANA, Calif. — A Southern California judge has delayed arraignment for a Saudi princess charged with human trafficking who failed to show up for the original hearing set for today.

The judge wasn't happy Meshael Alayban failed to appear, but he pushed back the arraignment to Sept. 20. Alayban's lawyers say she's complied with all court orders and will appear at her arraignment.

They didn't say where she is.

Alayban was arrested two weeks ago after a Kenyan woman claimed the princess hired her last year, took her passport, forced her to work excessive hours at an Irvine condominium and didn't allow her to leave.

I would look in a Bush Corporate Jet heading outbound. If it is good enough for the Bin Laden family it should be good enough for her.

With a sticker like that I would think a Sox fan would recognize the second most practiced past time of New England.

WE ARE GREAT DRIVERS. Is it my fault you happen to be on the sidewalk when I decide to talk a short cut? No!
Is it my fault that when I want to turn and you just so happen to be in my way and my lane at the same time? NO!
