Dad accused in ‘honor killing’ will not face death penalty

A Glendale man accused of killing his daughter in an “honor killing” will not face the death penalty.

After sparring with the suspect’s defense attorney over its death-penalty-review process, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office has said it will not seek death for Faleh Almaleki, 49.

The Iraqi immigrant is accused of killing his daughter, 20-year-old Noor Almaleki, for being “too Westernized.”
