Ars reports on the most recent blogger death in Bangladesh:
Assailants with cleavers and machetes on Tuesday killed another blogger in Bangladesh, the third blogger in that country murdered in as many months, the Committee to Protect Journalists said. Another blogger killed in Bangladesh earlier this year used Facebook as his medium, the committee said.
The committee said that Ananta Bijoy Das, who wrote about science and railed against religious fundamentalism, was killed Tuesday by four masked men in the northeastern city of Sylhet in broad daylight.
The death of Das brings to at least 20 the number of writers murdered globally this year, according to CPJ statistics. Bangladesh is ranked 13th globally with at least 16 killed since 1992.
An American blogger (of Bangladeshi origin) was an earlier victim this year.

... when no body had been found, and there were no witnesses.
Yes I do know Reiser eventually led them to her body. At that point it would have been just to try him for murder, not before.
To try someone for murder, without any evidence at all that the alleged victim is even dead, that is just wrong.

She committed adultery against him.
Deuteronomy calls for her to be killed.
He did nothing wrong.

Deuteronomy doesn't care.
I'm not a wowser american christian.
That thing your citing was a story about a guy that was supposed to fuck his dead brothers woman because the dead brother had no kids with her and someone needed to inherit his name.
The brother didn't want to and thus "dissed" his dead brother.
