Seems to me he got what was owed him regardless. This should happen more often.
But as a citizen who wasn't privy to this information (first time I saw them mention the rape thing) beforehand and just knew police were looking for a suspect in your neighborhood who might've been involved or have information about this crime would you say this beating was warrant?
I'm wondering what this will mean for the rest of the city, if we'll start seeing more acts of vigilantism(sp) or if this'll be just a one off case.
