А вот CNN, кажется, вот-вот отвоюет кусок хлеба
у Проханова.

A California man sold his 14-year-old daughter
to an 18-year-old man for cash, beer and meat --
then called police when the prospective bridegroom
didn't live up to his end of the deal, authorities
said Tuesday.<...>

Martinez had arranged through a third party to
have his daughter marry the older teenager,
identified by authorities as Margarito de Jesus
Galindo, of Gonzales, California. In exchange,
Galindo was to pay Martinez $16,000 and provide
him with 160 cases of beer, 100 cases of soda,
50 cases of Gatorade, two cases of wine, and
six cases of meat, Greenfield Police Chief Joe
Grebmeier told CNN.

All those involved in the case are from the
western Mexican state of Oaxaca, the police
chief said. In the Oaxacan community, such an
agreement is "normal and honorable," he said.
"In California, it's against the law."

По-моему, достойно apocalypse_cult@lj.
Мексиканец, проживающий в Калифорнии, продал
14-летнюю дочь замуж за двадцать баранов,
холодильник Розенлев, финский, хороший и
Почётную Грамоту. $16,000, и прочих ништяков,
160 ящиков пива и 6 ящиков мяса в числе прочего.
Интеллектуальная элита, эффективный менеджер,
практически. А когда жених не принес
обещанные ништяки не нашел ничего лучше, чем
пожаловаться в калифорнийскую же полицию.





Практически одно лицо!
