Turkish Immigrant Attacks Wife and Daughters to Preserve His Honor
2004-04-24
A Turkish immigrant who is charged with killing his wife and critically injuring his two daughters in their Scottsville [near Rochester, NY] townhouse allegedly claimed he acted as a matter of honor. Ismail Peltek, who was indicted Friday on charges of second-degree murder in the April 15 slaying of his wife, Hatice Peltek, claimed he attacked his wife and daughters after learning that his brother had molested his wife and his 22-year-old daughter, according to court documents. Peltek, 41, said he attacked his 4-year-old daughter because she had been “sullied” by a gynecological exam. ”I was concerned that my family’s honor was taken,” he allegedly told investigators.

Peltek allegedly made the remarks 14 hours after the attack to Monroe County sheriff’s investigators at Strong Memorial Hospital, where he was treated for self-inflicted stab wounds to his abdomen and hammer wounds to his head. His 39-year-old wife died after being stabbed repeatedly and bludgeoned on the head with a hammer. His daughters suffered fractured skulls from hammer blows. ”If you had the opportunity to kill the family again, would you?” he was asked by Rochester police Officer Emre Arican, who was brought in to help investigators because he speaks Turkish. ”My female family, yes. My male family, no,” Peltek allegedly replied. .... Peltek and his family, which includes sons who are 18 and 17, came to the United States five years ago, he told investigators. They settled in Scottsville 16 months ago. ....

#6  Maybe theses pussies go after the wife and daughters because to go after the actual perpetrators of the crime would probably result in them getting their asses kicked and, Allah knows, think how that would fuck with their "honor".

#5  If one feels compelled to kill in the name of the family honor hows about going after the person who actually acted to dishonor the family, namely the frigging brother. This is what awaits the wives and daughters of our European brothern if the Islamofacsits ever take over

#3  I am doubtful that the two sons are going to be the type of citizens that we want to add to the melting pot. Interview them and expel them as required. I a human family (no I didn’t mean humane) would be more than happy to adopt the daughter.

TS, give his brother the treatment also and don't spare the pine tar. You don't want the grip to slip. If bro molested the four year old girl, have him pitched over the fence into the alligator pond at the local zoo.

#2  I suggest he undergo a testicular exam, by Louisville Slugger.
Batter up!

Checking for abuse?
