Can things get worse after being gang raped 14 times by seven men?  Only in Saudi Arabia.  The unnamed woman who survived gang rape was also sentenced to 90 lashes and jail time for being in the car of an unrelated male at the time of the rape.  Both the man and woman were raped.

Later, the woman’s sentence was increased when she complained to the media.  Now, she faces 200 lashes and six months in prison.  Her attackers will serve from two to nine  years in prison.

Now that is depressing.
