Hope he gets off. Sounds like the police are recognizing him for the hero that he is.

Father of the Year.

Good for him! I'd do the same thing. And his daughter will know how much her daddy loves her.

What a horrible situation, but I think he was more than justified. Good for him for defending his daughter. Horrible that it happened to her, and also horrible that the father will probably feel guilt of killing someone, despite being justified that's tough to live with.

Whoa. Wow. To sum up - he caught the man in the act and punched him repeatedly ("several times" written once, repeatedly another time), and man later died from injuries.

Had he hunted the molester down afterward, I'd imagine that would be very different circumstances than pulling a man OFF his FOUR YEAR OLD daughter.

Wow. There's no way this guy gets charged with anything.

Even if they were to charge him, there would be no jury in the world that would convict him.

As he should

Punched in the head several times is downright genteel.

I think that pulling someone off of my daughter would make me go all Hannibal Lechter on his ass. "Sweetie, avert your eyes while momma tears this guy's throat out with her teeth."

My heart breaks for this man and his daughter. I am glad he killed him. I am horrified at how this pedophile manipulated this family so he could gain access to their child. I hope people read the story and let it burn in. Stuff like this happens to kids all the time, people are in such denial about it. If it had been me, I would have called up some bad asses to go to work on him with a pair of pliers and a blow torch, he would have lived the rest of his short life in agonizing pain.

One less child molester in the world. Yes, he saved his daughter, but there is no telling how many more little kids he has saved from this monster. He's my hero.

Yes, I imagine so.

However, I also think that most juries would still let him go. I'd hold firm, claiming he had a right to defend his daughter. You can't rehabilitate molesters, and the thought of using my tax money to keep them comfortable makes me ill.

Real life Dexter. Good for him.

Should happen more often. Kudos to the dad. One less POS on the planet.

It is different, no question - and in the later circumstance he'd likely be charged - but there's no jury in the world that would convict him. He might not be acquitted, but there's no queston that at least one in 12 people (myself included) would hold firm on, "Good for you."

I'm just shocked that he limited himself to repeated punches. Choking, gouging - anything's fair game at that point.
