Justice

I would never condone vigilantism but who could really <a href="http://news.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/06/26/wrape26.xml">blame this woman</a>.<br />n<br />n<blockquote>A Spanish mother has taken revenge on the man who raped her 13-year-old daughter at knifepoint by dousing him in petrol and setting him alight. He died of his injuries in hospital on Friday.<br />n<br />n…<br />n<br />n"The place was packed with people eating. I was sitting at a table and Soriano was standing at the bar very close to me when the woman walked in," he said. "She didn't acknowledge anyone but walked up to Soriano, who was drinking a coffee, put her hand on his shoulder and turned him round to face her. <br />n<br />n"Then she pulled the bottle she was carrying from under her arm and began to tip it over him. At first I didn't realise what was happening, but then I smelt the petrol. I jumped up and tried to grab her, but when she struck a match I got clear. <br />n<br />n"The petrol was in a pool around Soriano, and she threw the match into it. It ignited with a whoosh, and he screamed and staggered about covered in flames. As people rushed outside to escape the flames, she just looked at him, then turned and walked away."</blockquote><br />n<br />nI don't blame her one bit. If I was on a jury and this case come before me I would have a hard time convicting her. No matter what happens to her, she got justice.<br />n<br />n<b>Justice, and only justice, you shall pursue.
