Honor Killings and Cultural Defenses

1. Research a case where an honor killing was argued as a cultural defense. Explain the facts of the case and the result. Then, argue whether you think a cultural defense should be permitted as a valid defense in the United States.
2. Be sure to provide at least two (2) arguments in support of or against the use of a cultural defense.
3. Finally, identify another country's approach to cultural defenses to crimes and assess the strengths and weaknesses in its approach.
