Disagree, as according to the article it appears to fall under justifiable homicide.Originally Posted by Iconbuster
this man deserves 25 to life, he should be made into an example becuase murder is still murder .Vigilante type actions should not be tolerated, otherwise gang murders should be justifiable as well.
"Justifiable homicide is the killing of one person by another that is committed without malice or criminal intent. When a person commits a justifiable homicide they are not guilty of a criminal offense. Homicide can be considered justifiable homicide if it is committed in self defense, the defense of others, while trying to prevent of serious crime, and in the line of duty."

What exactly did you expect the father to do? Remain calm and rational as your child is being raped and yell "Halt, perpetrator as I alert the proper authorities!"
