    Well, we've already heard what you do with your empty beer bottles while you're driving, so please, tell us what you do on the wine. I'm intrigued...

    Was the man justified? Who knows.

    Is it understandable? Yes.

    Is there a big possibility that I'd do the same in the same circumstances? Yes.

    Would I plan out killing the man? No.

    Do I feel that the man should be convicted? No.

    Follow up.

    More details have been released.

    Apparently the father heard the daughter screaming. He ran up and found the assailant with his pants down. The father attacked the man then called the police asking for help and an ambulance. The police reported that the father was VERY distraught on the 911 tape and after they arrived and had not intended to kill the assailant.

    The Grand Jury stated that Texas Law allows deadly force to be used to stop a sexual assault. So that ended it.

    That's good for the father and his family. However, with the way the legal system here works, if the slain attacker has any close family members still living, they'll probably sue the father in civil court for wrongful death.
