LA prosecutors won’t charge Saudi sheik with multiple sexual assaults because ‘insufficient evidence’

Prosecutors for the county of Los Angeles say they will not file charges against a Saudi prince recently arrested for sexual assault at a gated mansion on the edge of Beverly Hills.

A civil lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court on Sept. 25 says he attacked multiple women inside the home for several days.

The prosecutors say insufficient evidence. More like, sufficiently a Saudi sheik.

Not even a screaming, half-dressed, bloodied and battered houseworker literally climbing an 8-foot wall of his gated compound to escape would suffice. Because that actually happened.
