I'll take things that never happened for $500 Alex.
yuikol14
So your daughter grew up without a father during her most crucial years. I'm not sure that's a win or we should be promoting this.
mycatToastwasafatasshole
Its a win for all the children that guy would've raped in the future. Sure, that guy going to prison would also stop it, but if it's a /1
mycatToastwasafatasshole
he said vs. she said and that dad was a liked, well connected 'church going man' he probably wouldn't go to prison anyway. /end
yuikol14
Well there's other principles of mine this goes against as well: due process, anti-death, anti-revenge.
Glitch3d
Sounds like BS pro gun campaign to me
CrazyforRAMU
Sounds righteous. But also dubious and unsubstantiated. Most of all, though, it's exactly the kind of shit that gun nuts masturbate to.
TreasonousCheeto
Yep.
kargul
Vigilante hero violence fetishizing. This is why people buy assault rifles. The number of upvotes this has makes me want to throw up.
SushiJaguar
Presuming the dude's claims are true, the justice system failed and the police failed. Would it be more palatable if done with a garrotte?
Kloetus
So 13 years in prison, not witnessing his daughter growing up, didn't bother him one bit. Smells like bullshit.
DarkVoivod
Here we go: these revenge fantasies are one of the reasons survivors keep their mouth shut. Put their healing before revenge!
stankginchfurbuger
And now his daughter, who he loved so much he was willing to kill for, grows up without a dad. This is not something to emulate

Yep. He just added to his daughter's trauma and disappeared RIGHT when she needed him most. And we're supposed to cheer for this?

Yep. The lesson is to find evidence and send an anonymous tip to the cops. No need for two kids to lose their dads.
knightofthenorth
Only one kid lost a dad, the other lost a monster. The only sad part is the dad had to go to prison when he deserved a medal.
Noahbalboa82
That's the thing that wasn't touched upon, the another daughter without her father
MrOsmo
I mean I'm scared of the idea that the pedo had a daughter
MaterialisticWorm
I thought the same but I think it means the fact he went to prison for it (being taken away from his daughter)
dakotaranch
I'm not saying it is right but I am saying if your going to do it.. maybe just dissappear him.. quietly.
TheMagicalUpvoteFearie
Then its murder, and you're kind of an obvious suspect

It was murder either way. May as well *try* to get away with it.

Only takes one juror to hold out. Minimum of a hung jury.

If there's any truth in this story at all it sounds like a plea deal.

AscensionGames
Problem is if you know about it it's illegal for you to be a juror. It's also illegal for you to mention it to other jurors...

So vigilante "justice" is ok? This situation would be murder. You can argue it's understandable but it's not right

Police and courts are the civilized alternative to mob justice. If police and courts won't deliver justice when it's needed.......

If the state will not deliver justice, people will take their own justice. Whatever your position on the matter, it is inevitable.
paulbennis
if it can prevent more victims it is right.
daromander
If this is in the US then this horrible person still has a right to a jury trial. That's how you prevent more victims.

Different story, though, that guy didn’t even get charged, let alone go to jail for 13 years. (Nor did he use a gun, etc.)
Imalwaysready
Caught in the act and reacting in a "crime of passion" and direct self-defense is still very different than planning it premeditated style.
Xecryo
The scary part to me, is it sounded like the cops were protecting the molester and it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Well, the victims need to first report the crime to the police.

40% of cops have a DOCUMENTED history of domestic abuse.

The problem with this idea is children won't report if they're afraid their father will go to prison for murder. Also source?

Okay … but then this person’s daughter went without her parent for 13 years. That’s not better.
badgerbadgerbadgerbutt
Bet your daughter was real happy growing up without a dad. The murder was more for you than for her.

100% this, my stomach is churning reading the comments here, it's real brave to abandon your daughter after she was raped at 13. So brave.

Right? The number of people here bragging about how they would peace out on their daughter's life and go to prison at the VERY MOMENT she >

needs them present and participating in her life and healing is amazing to me. I'd also *want* to shoot the dude, but I wouldn't do it if >
Imalwaysready
doing so meant leaving my daughter behind and doing even MORE damage to her trauma and psyche. I'd rather be there for her.
narniasreal
I'd hope 13 years aren't "most of her life", but then again the entire story sounds made up.

I've spoken to plenty of survivors saying these stories are a reason to stay silent. It's not about them. Vengence
circleit
We do what we think is right. Not everyone will agree. This is life.
TheRealBigChungus
The cops weren’t gonna arrest the guy, and he was gonna do it again. They always do. We don’t know how many lives he saved.
SIGMA920
Record his admission and use that as evidence. That's not hard to do.
Imalwaysready
I suspect being under duress at gunpoint wouldn't exactly hold up as being a valid and trustworthy admission in court...
SIGMA920
Duress or not, saying both parties were consenting when your claim is that nothing happened is an admission that something happened.
Imalwaysready
Under duress, it wouldn't even be admissible so no jury would hear what it contained anyway. And the guy would still only have to claim >
SeventyThirty
Greater good, fault of the justice system for giving him 13 years. Prison? sure, thats fair but 13 years?
Peanutchews
Check out the concept of jury nullification.
dafrey
Could have been a mandatory minimum?
littlecoatfatguy
Agree with his motives or not, it was still homicide by every legal definition.
LespritDeLescalier22
Wouldn’t it also be first degree murder? I thought that carried a longer sentence
SeventyThirty
yeah, which is why prison is fair. 13 years just seems excessive granted the uncovered evidence. legally not his place but the right call.
ilhares
Considering it's usually more a sentence of 27 years or more, I think he got a good deal.
Imalwaysready
13 years for a clear cut case of premeditated murder is one hell of a good plea bargain considering what you get otherwise.
Omnimorph2112
Without his actions the man would not have been discovered. Those tapes remain unknown. The man would have done it again as well.

More than once people have been released in TX for this when they found someone molesting their daughters.. at least they got that going...
jroneida
If you’re going to do something like this, make sure his family can’t sue you for what you have (house, money, etc).
Preincarnated
They can. So now he's in prison for 12 years, his daughter is grieving and he's not there to help her, and they are all getting sued for_

Hence my warning that you pause your vengeance long enough to legally protect your assets and loved ones before whatever you do.

everything they own, which even if they win probably drags this on for months or years and very high cost.
RemtonDulyak
On one hand, i can't justify homicide. On the other hand, I'm a father and I would have done the same.
otiumCatulli
How about you ask your daughter what she wants. It was a crime done to her, not you.
Imalwaysready
You’d willingly leave your traumatized daughter without your support for 13 years when she’s most broken and in need of your presence?
ThrowAwayAcct0000
He stopped many other kids from being raped/molested.

In this made up story, sure. At the cost of abandoning his own traumatized daughter. There were other ways to solve the problem, regardless.
ThrowAwayAcct0000
I'd rather save multiple kids than have those years with my daughter, because I know all those other parents would want good things for

Wait, you'd let her keep going over there for 12 more years after this happened?

Feralkyn
Idk, dude, in the end that's what a good parent is for: protecting their kids. Yeah, it sucks he wasn't there, but imagine if nothing had

That's not protecting your kid, man. That's satisfying your personal desire for vengeance. You'd be a truly shitty parent.

You keep making the case, file a civil suit, go to the local news, and keep pressure up. I love how casually you're just like "sucks he_

wasn't there..." From the daughter's POV, you think she gave a shit about anything in her trauma OTHER than the fact he wasn't there?

Yes and clearly the police are the ones who have failed in this scenario. But damn at least hide the body and try to get away with it lol

The man's wife and daughter probably heard the shot. Even if they didn't, they could have said that he was the last person who they knew 1/2

You still would have gone to prison and frankly he would likely died from shock or blood lost.

Nope, justified implies justice. Revenge and vengeance is not justice. If you don't like a system based on justice, try Iran or Saudi Arabia

Killing an unapologetic child rapist is justice for everyone else in the world. It is unjust to force us to suffer their existence.

IPoisonedDorcasMutton
Bullshit. When the police just sit back and allow abuse like this to happen, removing the abuser is the only way justice is served.
Trunkmonkay
I dont think you understand the difference between justice and vengeance. If your version of justice involves "eye for an eye", move to Iran

I fully understand justice. Justice is ensuring the abuser cannot harm anyone else. If the legal system refuses to do so then removing 1

Only part that stinks is the rapist could only die once.

Or that the shot rapist was actual innocent. It isn't guilty until proven innocent, it's innocent until proven guilty.
Navrodel
He admitted to the act before being shot. Either way, it would have been a presumably innocent man dying, but a very guilty man dead.
SIGMA920
In this case. In another case, it might not be. And even in this case, the admission wasn't said to be recorded so it's a "he said X, dead

person says nothing" situation which is even worse than a "he said, she said" one.

I like to think the last thing going through his head, before the bullet, was the realization that he'd fucked up big time.

Well that’s remarkably short-sighted.
LilyVamp
Not torturing a pedo before killing him to not further traumatize a wife and kids is short-sided? Did I miss something?
YellowSparrow
My neighbor's little girl was raped by her grandfather. Found out years later. Not even my kid and I fantasized about killing him.
theshinobi23
Read that wrong at first. I think you needed a comma after "not even my kid"
Onsvaltti
Thank you for clearing that comment, I almost got upset
shyasen
They didn't hear the gunshot? They didn't come out & see his brains everywhere? Who found him and who called the police?
hartyharhartbreaker3
I’m sure they were exposed to both, but better than hearing/seeing your loved one tortured first.
HarryDresdenIsMySpiritAnimal
If they were also being abused by him (very likely), then the sweet sweet music of his tortured screaming could have been quite cathartic.

For the mother maybe, but a child wouldn't process it that way, not during it anyway.
wadatahmydamie
The rapist didn’t die at all. This is fiction

Would be best to shoot his balls of, then send him to prison. The inmates love giving rapists, esp. child rapists a taste of their own meds.

Rape is by far not the only thing. You guys have a hard on for defending yourself. Because your police is not doig there part.

if we actually made the cops process rape kits in this country you might see the non-gun heads go 'hold up' a little more.

Assuming facts not in evidence. Guys who talk like this don’t shoot pedophiles, they vote for them.
Pentjotal
One good I found was a bus driver abusing a little girl & the father use nunchuck until the chain broke, got 1 years of probation
amb1021
I also have a hard time the police wouldn't have made an arrest in the case of a six-year-old needing stitches. I know they suck, but still.
DeKetsendeRechter
What is that, tumblr? They're always full of shit.
azazyel
I mean he got a confession, also I don't buy that the police would react that way
BellsTheorem
A confession at gunpoint that wasn't recorded?
PutItInNeutral
This was a confession under duress at gunpoint.
ilhares
Yeah, but the police would also get a confession: for murder.
alRakoun
What the fuck country do you live in that you think the police in the US would not act EXACTLY LIKE THIS?
azazyel
My brother's a cop and I know he wouldn't.
alRakoun
Fuck him.
azazyel
ok tough guy
VictusVonGuyver
You sure? Because this is exactly how half of them react to rape. "What were you wearing" being the most common question thrown at victims.
Imalwaysready
Not so much with 6 year olds? Apples and oranges. Cops LOVE busting child predators.
amishmistress
"How much have you had to drink?" None. I was the DD. "You sure?"
azazyel
6 years old dude
WarlockSniper
And yet, that is exactly how they react, even to 6 year olds. Cops are not your, or a childs, friend.
VictusVonGuyver
Let me tell you about a 6 year old raped. It was my sister. My mom denied it, the cop me and friend talked to states that my sister >
VictusVonGuyver
And "said you can't trust what a small children say. They make stuff up all the time." And thought I was just pushing to get this guy in >
Tumescentpie
And? Maybe you've not dealt with the police before. They aren't here to protect us.

But it's on the Internet, it must be true!
Alderfern
Could only find texan dad beating rapist to death. Other vengeance killings didn't fit. Horrible search; to many returns. Horrible.
Mediocreclient
You mean like the Gary Plauché case that was covered nationally?
wingineer
Quite. I mean, incomprehensible as it is to think that someone would plagiarize a famous event for Internet points...
apollo1983
Also. Why wasn't he pardoned, If I was governor, I'd pardon him and watch the reelection votes roll in
themadbull
Obviously because he wasn’t rich enough to buy a pardon.
OrangeFlavours
Because he commited a crime, dude. You can't just shoot people regardless of what they did, no pardons.
whyisallthecheesegone
My dude, that’s what a pardon is. By accepting it you admit you did the thing and you get to walk. Pardons are exactly for this
bizzybanana
Do you know what city it was in? That’d be key. Plenty of people are murdered and it hardly makes the news.
Preincarnated
Poor people & minorities. Child molestation revenge killing...leading to discovery of more molestation crimes? That WOULD make the news.
Kingdomonsterdeath
The family may not have been white, therefore the media didn't care.
wingineer
Always important to consider racism, but Christian Barrett’s profile photo in the OP looks white to me.
ThisisntJessitsJess
I think they keep this stuff from the news so people don't go off being vigilantes.
DesmondHawkins
It would be cited all the time by pro gun people
penzick
In that scenario, who would "they" be? Every single person who makes a living or earns a profit by publishing/broadcasting stuff like this?
wingineer
A quick counterexample at https://theguardian.com/world/2012/jun/20/texas-man-not-charged-beating-molester but you can Google others.
wingineer
That suggests a greater level of self-control on the part of media organizations than I’ve ever seen evidenced.
Dagordae
Kind of weird how often this sort of thing makes the news. Also you seem to be under the delusion that the news media self censors in the
Dagordae
Name of societal harmony. Which is just… Have you EVER seen the news? It’s something like an average 65% starting shit for attention. Some a

Pure 100% outrage generation pushing heavily for stupid and illegal acts.

I think youve been tricked into thinking this is everywhere all the time. This a fanfic

Look up Cain Velasques, similar story

ljw1004
Different story.
wingineer
I saw that, but it’s not this case: among other differences, that guy didn’t use a gun and didn’t face charges, let alone get 13 years.
ReconditeEidolon
W/o source, seems like, hot button topic, pro-gun propaganda... That clearly works.
oaberbyamd
Bingo
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
It's got the lone wolf dad protecting his family and all the other dads clapped at the end.
ImgurCouncilOfLlamas
Dude, murder and rape trials happen every day.
wingineer
I doubt there are many murder trials where the defendant got 13+ years for killing his 6-y-o’s rapist. Yet not even local news picked it up?
punkynoodles
Barrett v. State, 140 Ga. App. 309, 231 S.E.2d 116 (Ga. Ct. App. 1976)
ButImNoExpert
This appears to be a stabbing in response to being slapped.
wingineer
Wrong Barrett (not C. Barrett) and wrong case (a drunken stabbing in response to a slap, not a shooting of a daughter's rapist).

Friggin YOINK!
nickdub49er
yeah. she needed stitches and they couldnt arrest the guy? i dont doubt cops ineptitude, ever, but my skeptical spider sense is going off
Mayfly10
They didn't even search his house, apparently.
DillPixels
Need a shocking amount of evidence to charge someone. Plus police bungle investigations CONSTANTLY
TheanswereisDoge
Tell that to the cops who gave the escaped child back to a rapist / murderer. Think it was dolmer?
kawraith
Jeffrey Dahmer. That escaped child was pleading for his life and bleeding from his rear end. Cops believed Dahlmer. Kid was murdered/eaten.
CakeShapedPie
Then one of those cops was promoted.
Ezzy666
There was a toddler who was raped and DNA evidence in her bloody diaper. It wasn't taken to trial because she was an unreliable witness
tiptoeingthru
Preincarnated
Bullshit. Witnesses aren't even required. And no jury in the world is going to go "yeah, the evidence was a slam dunk, but did you hear_
Preincarnated
the way she said it happened after breffkiss? Then said it was during breffkiss? Well, which is it?! Why can't she get her story striaght?"
Emiloo74
Welp. There goes my rage budget for the day.

you dont need a witness if you have evidence...what DA is that incompetent?

I would say "thank you" but...jesus
Evi1Gav
A six year old, especially if you go back even just a few years, is not a reliable witness. It sucks, but it's true.
RecurringNightmare
irrelevant...6yo with wounded genitals means something illegal has appened, cops at least have to open a case and start investigating...
atomfixes101
He immediately admitted it as well :/ good story, but a story
SadToSay
Ohhhhhh buddy, you still have a waaaay too inflated sense of police competence. I have a couple of stories about how they botched easy cases
DarnThisStuff
Yeah, who takes advantage of children and females in a society such as ours, harrumph.
rbudrick
Lol, this is like textbook cops don't wanna deal with it. Modus operandi. ACAB.
TyrannusEquus
You are correct. That is huge evidence. But this is probably just made up shit for internet attention.
SerenePrincess013
One thing I want to point out: Bc of the circumstances surrounding his case, he might have changed his name.
PenguinPlans
A corpse by any other name...
Ausmerica
ALBERT EINSTEIN?!
Preincarnated
Wait...so he changed his name because of what happened...then went public under his new name and spilled the beans on what happened?
DigiT00l
Still if the other details don't bring up anything
SerenePrincess013
In a case that was this muddied, do you think the judge & cops would let word get out about their incompetence-ohwait.
wingineer
If he was sentenced to at least 13 years, then it’s a matter of public record. If they wanted to hush it up they shouldn’t’ve charged him.
KingMagenta
When searching for this, I found a story from 2012 where a man beat to death his child’s rapist. So I mean, it’s possible?
KingMagenta
Although they chose to acquit him https://abcnews.go.com/US/charges-texas-father-beat-death-daughters-molester/story?id=16612071
curolina
They always do in cases like this
SaintCody
According to the date in the screenshot, this event was minimum 35 years ago, so that might be making it more difficult to find, if it did
Preincarnated
What date? Feb. 22 is the only one I see.
SaintCody
Is the "2000" next to his name and university not the year? And then the 2007 further down?
Preincarnated
Those are the dates they earned those degrees and graduated from those institutions. Got an M.S. in Criminal Justice in 2007.
Preincarnated
No date on the event itself, or even when this post was actually made, other than it was updated on Feb 22 of an unknown year.
