Yaser Said is still at large, as a FBI Top Ten Fugitive, at the present time. On December 4, 2014, the FBI is offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.

Yaser Said (also spelled Yasser Said) has been accused of the “honor killing” murders of Amina and Sara Said on December 31, 2008, shooting them 11 times in his taxicab.  Their mother, Patricia Owens, has continued a campaign to seek justice for her slain daughters.  “‘Justice needs to be served for Amina and Sara,… ‘I’m here to get the word out on honor killing and justice for Amina and Sara.’ ‘I want him to be caught; I want him to be punished for what he did to the girls.  They did not deserve that.'”

The murdered victims had contacted the Irving Police Department at 7:33 pm CT  via a telephone call to the 911 call center. The 911 call center reported that the call was from Sarah Said. Sarah Said stated that she had been shot 9 times and told the operator “My Dad shot me and my sister, I’m dying!” Patricia Owens and other claim the girls were killed for being too Westernized having non-Muslim boyfriends.

The Dallas Morning News reported that: “Friends and relatives have said that Said became irate because he found out his daughters were dating and that he had threatened to harm them. On Christmas Day 2007, Owens, her daughters and their boyfriends fled the state. They rented an apartment under an assumed name in Tulsa, Okla.But Owens and her daughters returned to Lewisville on New Year’s Eve. Owens said Said’s family convinced her that she and the girls shouldn’t fear him and that they would protect them. She said they also said that she and the girls should stay in the family’s home and that Said could stay with relatives. Amina wanted to finish her last semester as a senior and feared that attending high school in Tulsa would affect the full scholarship she’d been offered to Texas Tech University. That night, the girls and their father left to get something to eat. The next day, Amina, 18, and Sarah, 17, were found shot to death in a cab their father had borrowed at an Irving hotel.”

Amina Said’s alleged boyfriend has also spoken out on the murders.
