TULSA – The family of the man who was murdered by his neighbor in his south Tulsa home shared her story on Facebook.

Khalid Jabara, 37, was killed, police say, by his neighbor while out on his front porch on August 12.

Jabara's family says the neighbor, Stanley Majors, called them "dirty Arabs," `'filthy Lebanese," `'Aye-rabs," and "Mooslems," even though they are Christian.
