        We could argue that it is state based laws and on other information that requires this charge versus the other but....This is still eff'd.

        The man deserves Father of The Year, IMO he can look at his daughter and say you don't need to worry about that man no more.

        Most Father's would react to a potential rapist of their child this way.

        There is a reason why we have laws and police and courts and judges and a whole system to handle things. Vigilante justice is murder. This was as bad as lynchings. If every person does what they think is justice, it would be horrific.

        Our system of judges & courts is just as corrupt. Not all but many. Still, it is our system & no one "should" take law into their own hands. Then again, not one "should" feel obliged to commit a crime. In human history there weren't always judges or courts.

        I would rather have an imperfect system than lawlessness. Imagine everyone doing whatever they wanted with no system.

        Sounds like instant justice. Leave the guy alone and quit wasting the court's time.

        Premeditated? Only after man supposedly tried to enter stall? Verdict of death warranted? Fact is that the man did die as a result of the beating and that is the unfortunate end result. Murder? No. But dead just the same.What did the law do in this?

        He'd receive a $50 fine and a strongly worded rebuke if I was the judge.
