As far as the guy that witnessed someone raping his daughter. You don't just rape someone by accident. The rapist has full intentions of raping said female, that's not just something that happens out of the blue. To me it's bullshit the guy got life for beating that crazy asshole to death. To me he did the world and state taxpayers a favor by getting rid of that scum.
But shooting someone in retaliation of a drunk driver hitting your kid is still murder. It's acting irrationally during a highly stressful situation, but his intentions were to get his gun and then pull the trigger and kill said drunk driver. It's ridiculous that guy got away w/ murder.

It's as if people aren't actually looking at the evidence the prosecution had.
