I remember the Father of one of the girls I dated back in high school, he met me at the door he told me;

I have a Gun and I know how to use it, I have a knife and know how to use it..

Yeah, hopefully. Otherwise the guy is a murder.

BBC News - The man who killed his daughter's rapist

Dad could have turned the guy into burgers...ok maybe not. But if the rapist "confirmed" his crime and taunted Dad then I can't blame Dad for what he did. However I'm not a prosecutor.

I don't think we need to encourage people to go out and torture and kill based on allegations. There are men who have been thrown in jail after lengthy trials who have later been found to be innocent. The rule of law isn't perfect, but it's the best we have. Let's encourage people to respect it.

He didn’t report the incident to the police, however, because the 45-year-old threatened him and his daughter, claiming to be “well connected.”

The girl reportedly got pregnant, and was forced to abort the baby by her alleged attacker.

That doesn't sound like the father had any doubt at all.

I think he should have tied him up first, used the thongs and then served him "h'orderves".

If it was a rapist of one of my children, he wasn't left alive long enough. There are certain things one can do to the human body that make you wish you would die. And those things would be carried out for sometime...a long time. Yes, I am in complete touch with my dark side and in certain circumstances I rival the devil with various aspects of evil. (also - there would be no genetic evidence to convict)

He is a murderer, he just murdered the guy who raped and impregnated his daughter. You did not read the article, did you.

[BlueSkyJaunte]

He's an alleged murderer.

Innocent until proven guilty, remember?

Perhaps he will be found a manslaughterer rather than a murderer.

IMNSHO he's just a janitor, taking out society's trash.

rape in that part of the world is beyond common..
considered no big deal even..
as women are viewed as being just above the dog...
getting some notice outside as they started hitting on the tourist..
so while Dad was making his statement...
one of the investigators probably visited his daughter...
