Daughter of slain Iraqi-American woman says parents clashed

Fatima Alhimidi, taking the witness stand on the third day of her father's murder trial, said that arguments between her parents began during a trip to Iraq in mid-2011 and escalated until her mother sought a divorce early the following year. "She told me every time she wouldn't sleep with him, he wouldn't give her money for her and us." Alhimidi, who was 17 at the time of her mother's death, told police she found her mother, Shaima Alawadi, bloodied on the floor of their home in the El Cajon suburb of San Diego on the morning of March 21, 2012. Prosecutors accuse the father, 49-year-old Kassim Alhimidi, of bludgeoning her to death, possibly with a tire iron taken from one of the family's cars. El Cajon police and the FBI initially investigated the killing as a possible hate crime because of a threatening **te found at the scene.
