No, I don't think he should be charged. All he did was what ANY parent would do. And that's protect his daughter. He just flipped out because his child was being hurt. He's not to blame. The man who hurt his daughter is the only one to blame.

\Quoting Andrew's Crazy Girl:" http://xfinity.comcast.net/articles/news-national/20120619/US.Texas.Father_s.Justice/ SHINER, Texas ... [snip!] ... right decision. Although, they did exactly what mostly everybody I know thought they were going to do. So I'm not surprised. "

Quoting Circle K:" He was trespassing. Just because he had worked for them before does not mean he can come onto their property whenever he feels like it."

Quoting ~Betta~:" <blockquote><b>Quoting Circle K:</b>" So he should have called the cops and waited ... [snip!] ... of people killed others accidentally and had to serve time. It's bullsmurf that there are different laws for different people"

Quoting 3 little monsters:" He was there working by my understanding. Do you have a link I could read that states otherwise? "

Quoting 3 little monsters:" The man wasn't trespassing. He was hired to help out on the farm and had worked for them before according ... [snip!] ... read at least. And yes, the one I feel the worst for is that poor little girl. I really hope they get her some counseling. "

Quoting Circle K:" He accidentally killed a man while protecting his daughter. He shouldn't serve jail time for it. We're ... [snip!] ... killed an innocent bystander. And from what I gather, you think this man should go to jail, not just get tried for what he did."

Quoting Erica! Jake & Abby's mom!:" texas law says he was in the right in the manner he defended his daughter...so he did nothing illegal and there are no different laws for certain people"

Quoting ~Betta~:" Then I disagree with Texas law. Wouldn't be the first time. Murder is murder for me, regardless of how it happened. "

Quoting GetInMyGuard:" so you dont believe in a persons right to defend him or herself? "

Quoting 3 little monsters:" I didn't see her say that, I just say her say she thought that if you kill someone you go to jail even if it was accidental. "

Quoting GetInMyGuard:" the guy was raping his daughter. he jumped on and beat the guy to death. he didnt intend for the man to die, according to my understanding, but he killed him defending his daughter. not murder, imo."

Quoting ~Betta~:" <blockquote><b>Quoting GetInMyGuard:</b>" the guy was raping his daughter. he jumped ... [snip!] ... have protected/defended his daughter, I'm saying that someone died, and the person that caused it should be given jail time"
