Worst Person in the World


I know that tool on MessNBC uses this phrase, but it certainly applies here.
It took the Rocky River community and school district a while to raise $120,000 for 12-year-old Sabreen Haq.

She was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and dying wish was to have a home instead of an apartment, where she could live with her family. She wanted her own bedroom for the first time in her young life.

Her mother, Maysoon, gave the money to her cousin, 35-year-old Hamza Abuhamdeh because he had extensive knowledge about rental property and buying homes.

Police said Abuhamdeh bought the family a home in North Olmsted, but he never let them move in. Instead, he rented out the house to another family. Police said he also put the home in his name and not Maysoon's.

Police said they tried to get him to either give the money back or let Maysoon's family move into the home, but Abuhamdeh only came up with $30,000.

The Make a Wish organization stepped in and sent Sabreen and her family to Disney World, but shortly after, she passed away.

She never got to see her new home or have that bedroom she wished for.
There's a special place in hell for this guy.
