Saudi Princess Meshael Alayban posts $5,000,000 bail, then skips California arraignment on human trafficking charges - 



A Saudi princess charged with human trafficking had her arraignment delayed Monday after she failed to show up for the Southern California hearing, leaving the judge perturbed and leading her attorneys to promise that she would appear at a later date.
