A pardon is admitting he did something wrong. He did not… hold the pardon is the jury convicts. Also, I think this needs to play out in a court room. If found guilty, he needs to appeal. All the way if need be. Why? Because at what point is a father protecting a child and at what point is a child making their own decisions. At what point can a person ( male or female) groom a child to which a parent may act.
As a father I know what the consequences I’m prepared to face but on the outside I’m curious what the line is where the law says “ you can’t protect your children”.

Do you have a teenage daughter or any children for that matter? If not, then shut the frick up. And, if so, I pity them.

I feel like we discussed this when it happened, and my question was:

- Obviously she can't consent

- I assume Arkansas permits using deadly force to stop grievous bodily harm, etc. to another

- I assume that if a woman were being forcibly raped and you shot the rapist, you may be able to avoid prosecution based on the above

- Does the law differentiate in self-defense between forcible and statutory rape?

SFP do you know the answers here?

"Self help" is typically considered vigilantism, and it seems the father engaged in self help that escalated. Since he was charged with murder, I presumed this escalation was disproportionate (ie, the dad had a weapon and the pedo did not).


You chastise everyone on this board for basing their opinions on assumptions then do the same yourself. Your contrarian personality is exhausting sometimes.

It’s why I took the guys advice on page 7 I think it was. SFP is either trolling or he actually believes the contrarian bs he spouts off all the time. In either case arguing with him won’t net a positive result.

It's highly specific to States and the fact pattern involved and I'm not a lawyer in Arkansas

My hypothesis/guess here is that, due to the way that he approached the pedophile, he cannot articulate the facts he actually witnessed necessary to establish these crimes regardless.

No I clearly stated I was making an assumption. I chastise people for arguing things arre factual when the statements are only assumptions.

I assume there have been cases involving the interpretation of statutory rape under statutes relating to force, violence, etc. that we could draw on here.

Of course, what matters is the reasonable belief element, so your daughter being in a car with a rapist gets close

But I suppose if dad had knowledge of a prior relationship with his daughter (presumably she'd been groomed into this?) perhaps that will work against him to some extent on that front.

I mean this is primed for jury nullification regardless, but it's an interesting scenario legally.
