I previously posted on this story this past spring—a wealthy Indian couple in Muttontown, Long Island were accused of keeping their domestic workers enslaved, and subjecting them to physical and psychological abuse. The story broke when workers, both middle-aged women from Indonesia, escaped and a neighbor called 911.
Yesterday, the Sabhnani couple of Long Island was found guilty of forced labor and involuntary servitude, among other counts, and could be sentenced to up to 40 years.
Wow. Just when you thought the biggest right-wing pundits couldn't get any more racially insensitive, Michael Medved decides to write a column about slavery. Don't read it if you've eaten in the past hour or so.
