I’m just glad I’m not a juror. It would be a hell of a struggle between legality and morality.

I really want to donate but I know gofundme is going to shut this down as soon as it goes viral/national. Ugh...

Can't even depend on that anymore. The perp probably got a free sex change and was placed in segregation.

It would be no struggle at all. I’d like to acquit the guy.

That was probably the tipping point.
Sometimes I think we have progressed too far as a society.

Only 12 years. This father did what our Demon libtard justice system failed to do.

Yeah no struggle with me either. I would let him off with time served these last 12 years.

That's why it would be a struggle. I'd also like to acquit, but as a juror you also take an oath to obey the law as laid out by the judge. I don't take my oath lightly, thus why I said it would be a struggle between legality and morality.

He did what he did because the justice system failed.

Not for me. No struggle at all. That’s why I wouldn’t get picked.

What state? That could make a huge difference.
the news article is Indiana/Michigan area
also depends on rural vs urban area....good luck finding a "jury of his peers" in a rural area to convict him.....let alone a prosecution to go to trial.....
Urban he is screwed
He'll likely be ok for the jury. You would have to go to Detroit or Chicago before you had much of a urban jury.

There are things that have been illegal in history, but moral at the same time. Things like harboring Jews during WW2 in German occupied territories. I could easily justify in my mind what this father did was moral in protecting his daughter for the future. You have no idea if this guy would target her again. What exactly would stop this man from killing his daughter? Would you take his word for it? Would the law protect her? That’s doubtful. That’s leaving out what he could do to other children.

I have never had a daughter so I can't possibly know how he feels but it seems like there are plenty of people that would do this in a drive by for $1,000. I'm not advocating vigilante violence but unless he needed the satisfaction of doing this himself, there are safer ways to get this done. He might still have gotten charged with murder for hire but just to do it with all looking doesn't seem very smart.

It’s not about getting away with it. It’s about protecting his daughter. I’d do it in a heartbeat for my daughter, wife, son, granddaughter, etc. This guy was free and anytime he wants he could go after her. The law wouldn’t protect her so he had no choice. This trash won’t bother her again. Problem solved.

Jury nullification is a legitimate option for any jury.

If the prosecutor had any balls and decency, he would present the case to a grand jury and the grand jury would decline the charge.
