On Oct. 2, Khashoggi went to the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, and he was never seen again. Turkish officials say he was murdered by Saudi agents, and on Friday, Saudi Arabia admitted he was killed inside the consulate, claiming he died during a fight. On Fox News Sunday, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said it was a “rogue operation,” and “the individuals who did this did this outside the scope of their authority. There obviously was a tremendous mistake made, and what compounded the mistake was the attempt to try to cover up. That is unacceptable in any government.”
