FOX News is good at taking a story, or a non-story, and twisting it.

Here's how they do it:

Man is Muslim
Man kills family
Man flees country before he is apprehended
.

That's where the story should end, but then they ask the question:

Could it be that government officials allowed this man to escape apprehension simply because they didn't want to stir up trouble with the Muslim community?!?

There is as much reason to pose this question as there is to ask whether his escape was assisted by UFOs. But what they do is plant a seed in the heads of the viewers, and then feed it and feed it and fertilize it until 40% of the country thinks the president is a Muslim.

Texas – Honor killing of AMINA and SARAH – chilling

American Girls - Page 1 - News - Dallas - Dallas Observer

Here are some random links that talks about it (that is not FOX)

I understand that FOX has a bad reputation for that(hench why I said it might not be reliable), but then again how can you tell that other major news groups do the same thing? Do you check every single news reports from CNN just to make sure that they are 100% real?
Your first alternate source uses FOX News as it's source. Notice how the blogger describes a 9-1-1 call as a 9-11 call.

Your second sources is a very long article, but no where in the article does it mention that the government assisted or allowed the father's escape. That's the FOX News "twist".
