Saudi crown prince 'ordered, monitored' killing of Khashoggi, Corker. So what you say mr. trump?


Washington (CNN)Lawmakers briefed Tuesday by CIA Director Gina Haspel accused Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of being responsible for the killing of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

Sen. Bob Corker, a Tennessee Republican who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told CNN after a briefing with Haspel that the prince, known as MBS, "ordered, monitored, the killing" of the father of four.

Corker added, "And if he (MBS) were in front of a jury, he would be convicted of murder in about 30 minutes."

Corker was one of several lawmakers who emerged from a small briefing with the CIA director appearing convinced of the prince's responsibility for the killing. The murder has become a lightning rod, dividing the White House and a usually supportive Republican-led Senate.

Kushner should be pulled in front of a committee and forced to answer about his buddies role in a murder.
