It’s a girl! (and now the trial…)

Elif Shafak, the embattled University of Arizona assistant professor of Near Eastern Studies, gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday.  Now her girl may not see her mother for a number of years, as Shafak’s trial starts tomorrow.   Though Shafak wants to attend the first day of the trial, her current medical condition may not enable her to do so.

The New York Times also put out a decent article.  For once.
