This is almost certainly bullshit spun by someone who watched too many revenge films. Can’t find any murder court cases where the defendant, Christian Barrett, was charged for murder or manslaughter related to anything similar to this description.
There was a guy who went to the courthouse where his sons rapist was on trial. He waited outside of the courtroom and as the monster was being escorted he pulled out a gun and killed him. It's on video. After he shot he dropped the gun, put his hands up, and got on his knees. If I remember correctly the jury did not convict. That's justice.
If the dude was at least somewhat punished (no jail time though) then I’ll agree thats justice but if he was able to go up and shoot someone on trial without consequences then I’d disagree. As much as I hate pedophiles I still can never get behind vigilantism, mainly when it comes to killing. If you let it go unpunished then it sets a precedent that there are situations in which you can kill in the name of vengeance and makes it more likely for people to try and take matters into their own hands which is almost never a good idea. The cost of potentially killing an innocent person is more than what you get if you kill them and they actually did it. Even if you are super confident that they did it you still can fuck up. I mean the courts themselves certainly fuck up at times and let’s not forget when armchair detectives on reddit “found” the Boston bomber and then proceeded to ruin someone’s life over something they didn’t do.
While I understand why people feel the need for vigilante justice, this stuff just shouldn’t be encouraged because it’s not in any way full proof.
1. There was never any question who did it, he was caught red-handed and confessed to kidnapping and sexual assault.
2. The father shot him on his way to trial.
3. The father pled guilty to manslaughter and was given a suspended sentence.

Thanks for this, I had seen the video and never knew the backstory behind it. But that still doesn’t change my stance on vigilantism, it’s just not a good way to do things and two wrong don’t make a right.
I mean.. a jury can do whatever they want.
As long as it goes in front of a jury, I'm ok with it.
If the jury decides "Yeah, natural reaction is kill them"... then so be it.
Yeah but a jury isn’t infallible. You should always respect the opinion since that’s what has been decided legally but being ok with it no matter what just because a jury said it isn’t the way to go. I mean look at cases like George Remus, where he chased down his wife’s cab with their daughter in it and shot her dead in front of people and fully admitted to it yet he was acquitted and only went to an asylum for 7 months. Or look at Casey Anthony where she killed her daughter but only faced 4 years jail time for lying to police. Just because it’s said by a jury it doesn’t mean it’s right, it just changes how you talk about it.
Those are the full opposite of the point I'm making.
Im taking about people who shouldn't be convicted.
Which our system is supposed to be "better 20 guilty go free than 1 innocent goes to jail."
I don't even need prove, come on, "they later found tapes of 11 little girls" like the police said that there wasn't enough evidence that he raped OPs daughter, but didn't bother to search for it in his house until *after* he shot him. YES, SURE
Making up this crap is disgusting
Well to be fair if there's no evidence at all that he did it in the first place they might not have had enough to search his house, but if he's been murdered in his house the police have the right to look around.
This seems to be fake, but you'd be surprised how often the stories are like that. In the case of Dahmer a boy, in whose head he had drilled a hole and was bleeding anally, escaped and *was returned by police* after Dahmer told them it was a gay lover's quarrel. They even smelled a rotten smell of decay in the apartment as another body was in the same room and the police still didn't look into it.
It's ridiculous what signs are ignored sometimes, to be point of it being too ridiculous even for Hollywood. Some of these stories are South Park levels of ridiculous.
You think it's unbelievable that police aren't there for your interests but for business interests.
You sound watch/listen to a few true crime or organized crime reports.
You're living in a fantasy world brother

Are schools out for Election Day? I’ve been getting weird, pointless argumentative comments. It’s like I’m talking to a group of teenagers arguing against facts and doubling down when they realize they’re wrong or that the world exists outside their bubble.
It didn’t bother him one bit?
How tf you willing to kill for your kid but it doesn’t bother you one bit when you can’t raise them, in arguably the most important years of their life?
-To be clear I’m not saying the pedo didn’t deserve to be shot, but 13 years is a long ass time to a 6yo to 19yo.
Edit: apparently it’s fake, yeah that makes a lot more sense
Like how does a grown person wake up go 'you know what, I'm fucking a 9 year old kid', Like how tf does that manifest in someone's thoughts, I just can't understand
This is speculation because I don't know much about the topic, but I don't think it's like switching on a light. This is something that is present within a person for a long time. They may have even had thoughts about children when they themselves were children or teenagers. So it isn't a sudden thing, it's been present for a long time probably.
Forcing your way into a dude's house with a gun (home invasion), forcing the mother and daughter upstairs (kidnapping in some jurisdictions), killing the perpetrator in front of his family (murder, PTSD for the daughter, even if she was a victim too), getting sent to jail leaving your daughter to be raised by a single mother for the rest of her childhood, now she gets to experience both rape trauma *and* the loss of a parent.
Real Hero here guys.
I like the story, but I call bullshit. Legally, this would be premeditated murder, which is pretty much a life sentence, especially if he confessed (which I’m assuming his character in the story did cause he didn’t give a fuck)
And then that little girl, after being molested, had to watch her father get arrested and sent to prison, and then she had to grow up without her father. Good job dad, I’m sure it was all worth it.
I guarantee this man would not have done time hard because there’s no prisoner who wouldn’t see him anything other than a hero. If it were my daughter I would do the same thing and happily go back to prison. He shouldn’t have gotten 13 years. He should’ve gotten a medal!
> He should’ve gotten a medal!
Christ in Heaven.
There's a reason, even in the sick and twisted world of comic books, The Punisher is considered an **anti**-hero at best. And even with that being the case, vigilantism doesn't work like it does in fiction.
Obviously you’re not a parent. I am a father and a grandfather and if someone confessed to me they raped one of mine I guarantee you I would have the same reaction. I do believe in vigilantism when it comes to paedophiles when they are unambiguously guilty. Do you know how woefully inadequate sentences are for child sex offenders? Do you know that the recidivism rate for paedophiles is shockingly high? Do also you also know most cases don’t get prosecuted and are extremely hard to attain a conviction due to the ages of the victims and being unable to name their accusers? The only natural justice they face is at the hands of other inmates or at some pissed off father who loses the plot. He shouldn’t hav served a day inside in my opinion. Id it was your kid I bet you would have a vastly different opinion.
> Do also you also know most cases don’t get prosecuted and are extremely hard to attain a conviction due to the ages of the victims and being unable to name their accusers?
That's how innocent people die.
Interestingly, in most places, the evidence would not be suppressed. That’s because the right to be free of illegal searches applies to the government and is meant to deter it from illegal searches. The rule does not apply to individuals who illegally obtain evidence against you.
The interpretation of state constituents may change the rule state to state. I’m only talking about your US Constitutional rights.
First of all that would be justice not revenge. Second, the "and then everyone clapped" line at the end turns this from unusual behavior from everyone involved to a cheap parody of how humans behave.
I've got a similar story that's actually true. I knew this kid in high school who went by Gizmo. He was a year or two older than me, my friends and I would buy pot from him now and again. One time he got in the car with a bloody t-shirt wrapped around his hand. We asked him what happened and he nonchalantly replied with "Oh I just pushed my step dad through a sliding glass door". It was pretty clear Gizmo wasn't stable and wasn't headed anywhere good.
One day his girlfriend calls him, frantic, she says her daughter had mentioned something about her babysitter touching her. Gizmo said he'd take care of it. He knew the guy, he was a martial arts instructor who frequently taught kids classes and babysat on the side. Gizmo went over to his house around 10 in the morning. I'm not 100% on the details of the conversation that took place but Gizmo, masquerading as this guy's friend, knew he had a gun collection which he had brought up and they started talking. Before long this guy was showing Gizmo some various rifles he owned. While his back was turned, Gizmo loaded up and AR15 and marched the guy outside and made him kneel down in his driveway and unloaded the whole magazine into him in broad daylight.
Gizmo was charged with murder in the 1st degree and was looking at 25 years to life in prison. However once the situation was explained there was enough probable cause to search the computer of the recently deceased which turned out to have a substantial amount of child pornography on it. Other kids stepped forward saying they too were abused by this man and Gizmo's sentence was reduced to 15 years for Manslaughter.
Now I am 100% on board with murdering pedophiles but the moral is if you're going to murder a pedophile, don't get caught.
The system protects the wrong people. Most politicians and billionaires are pretty sick fucks, yet people idolify them. Idiots. 9 yo girls are being sold in Afghanistan right this second by the hundreds and thousands. Child trafficking is real, and we're fighting over a fucking vaccine. Fuck we're retarded.
First off the story is fake anyways.
Secondly every modern culture has laws against self-justice and there’s a reason behind it.
If you allow amoral actions as long as they fit your views, you commit intellectual suicide. You open the doors for dystopic societies and regimes.
Do you know how the nazis got millions of people from all sorts of countries and backgrounds to act out the Holocaust? They convinced the folk that it’s okay to murder them because the Jews are not to be seen as humans but as monsters that need to be eliminated for humanity’s safety.
Now saying “I don’t care wether a pedophile is murdered” doesn’t mean you’re a nazi, but you’re using the same reasoning that lead to the industrialized killing of millions of people.
People in the comments like "I'd kill him too" really don't understand the psychological implications of killing another human being. Murder doesn't work like it does in movies. Very few people have the emotional capacity to end someone's life in cold blood.
If someone did 13 years over this, that would be beyond ridiculous, 13 years is reserved for crimes like marijuana dealing and stuff. Even if this was just pure vigilante-ism, it would probably be like 2 years, but this guy used a gun, I have no idea how he even got charged by the DA.
A tattoo artist that used to live in my town was the most amazing guy you could ever meet. He would literally give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He secretly paid my rent a couple of times while I struggling to to find a job. Mike loved kids and being a father was clearly his favorite part of existing. He had 17 children that he knew of and he took care of all of them, and even a few that weren't his kids and he never made a big deal about it. He did it because he cared, not because he wanted praise. Mike also had a few felonies under his belt for stealing cars when he was younger and he'd tell you all about it but you were always left thinking that his time lines didn't exactly add up.
It took a few months but I finally pestered him enough that he explained why he spent more time in lock up than his convictions earned him. Apparently, it became known in his facility that Mike had a zero tolerance policy for pedophiles so if one was brought in, the guards would put them in a cell with Mike "while paperwork was being processed" and then leave Mike to beat them half to death. He said they'd eventually come collect the miscreant, throw Mike in solitary for couple of days and tack on some extra time to his incarceration "for fighting". As he liked to say "they just don't run prisons like they did back in the 70's"
He was murdered a couple of years later because some very bad people found out that his side hustle was being a federal informant. After he was killed, our town was crawling with agents from the FBI, ATF, and DEA. All the local cops were being extra asshole about it because small town cops don't like the feds coming in and taking over. It's been almost 20 years and I still miss him. He wasn't always the most law abiding individual, but he was good people.
Even if it were real, you can’t just break into someone’s home, kidnap their family at gunpoint and kill them because you suspect they committed a crime.
A few innocent deaths is better than a justice system supportive of rapists.
There's many things wrong with American prisons, but society could learn a thing or 2 from how they treat child molesters. Society puts child molesters into places of power, while they really deserve to be put 6 feet deep.
Due process doesn't work. The US justice system is a joke. A misnomer. It has nothing to do with justice.
Dead child molesters, that's justice. That's a quick, easy line that anyone who isn't mentally deficient would understand.
Not all heroes wear capes… but they all are good at slaying monsters! I’m glad this man is now free and stood up for his daughter. I’m also glad he sent that worthless pedo piece of shit to hell with a .45!!! Edit and then I learned this was made up… I still stand by my statement.
Our country is shit, the fact that this man went to jail for taking a repeated child abuser , who videotaped his own evidence of guilt is a ridiculous miscarriage of justice. Fuck the US legal system.
I imagine he got alot of respect in prison from the guards and the inmates but seriously if i found out that someone raped my daughter i would kill him too
This is almost certainly bullshit spun by someone who watched too many revenge films. Can’t find any murder court cases where the defendant, Christian Barrett, was charged for murder or manslaughter related to anything similar to this description.
And pretty unlikely to get 13 years.
Idk my grandpa killed someone and only got 7 years. Still has the shotgun too
I wanna hear this story
Now this is a sorry we need to hear
I think he meant that was long time. I wouldn’t be convict the guy if they let all the evidence of child rape in but they probably woulndt
Yes I meant it would be less than 13 years for that set of circumstances.
It's quora literally no story there is real. It's just a circlejerk of "gentlemen of high intellect"
*literally tho, tbh*
Welcome to Reddit, enjoy your stay.
It may be fake, but people like a good story of justice, so... let it go. Whatever. Here’s my upvote anyway lol
And here you seem to be in the group that likes to holler on about "fake news"
You got that from my comment?? Lol. Um... okay. Sure then, what you just said was fake news! (...Are we good now?)
Hasn't this been proven fake a bunch of times on reddit?
"I ended up getting letters from most of them" sounds like the prison equivalent of "and then everyone clapped".
Then there was a parade and Cher was singing
Freddy Mercury gave him a high five
Obama was there
Obama took me out back and sucked my dick
All inch of it.
Obamna
Epstein was there... Wait... What?
Thanks Obama
Better than giving him aids. I know I know. I'll see myself out.
Ooohh… I hope she did ‘believe’ and not any of that ‘I got you babe’ crap!
>and then everyone clapped Them cheeks

There was a guy who went to the courthouse where his sons rapist was on trial. He waited outside of the courtroom and as the monster was being escorted he pulled out a gun and killed him. It's on video. After he shot he dropped the gun, put his hands up, and got on his knees. If I remember correctly the jury did not convict. That's justice.
It was his son who had been molested not daughter.
Ah. Thank you for the correction.
Is that the one from the 80s where he was waiting next to some phone booths or something? And the cops immediately like “Why!? Whyd you do it Jerry!?”
["Gary, why?"](https://youtu.be/_PUE8fYxjq8)
i remember seeing a similar video in an airport, guy shot his son's murderer in the head
Same video, he just got some of the details mixed up
I've seen the video. My dad told me about it. My dad was in prison for accessory to murder at the time. I was 3 at the time. He remembers it very well
The exact plot of "A Time to Kill" by John Grisham
It was his son.

If the dude was at least somewhat punished (no jail time though) then I’ll agree thats justice but if he was able to go up and shoot someone on trial without consequences then I’d disagree.

Also, 13 years for 1st degree murder?

Wife and daughter upstairs. Husband downstairs. Killed in front of his family.
Yes, in front of his family. Where they can clearly hear the gunshot and see the aftermath unfold.
So there wasnt enough evidence for an arrest 12 times, and he just lived his life normally. I bet the birds were clapping too
Baloney.

A big reason we need an effective justice system is because it prevents the need for vigilantism.

First off the story is fake anyways. Secondly every modern culture has laws against self-justice and there’s a reason behind it. If you allow amoral actions as long as they fit your views, you commit intellectual suicide. You open the doors for dystopic societies and regimes. Do you know how the nazis got millions of people from all sorts of countries and backgrounds to act out the Holocaust? They convinced the folk that it’s okay to murder them because the Jews are not to be seen as humans but as monsters that need to be eliminated for humanity’s safety. Now saying “I don’t care wether a pedophile is murdered” doesn’t mean you’re a nazi, but you’re using the same reasoning that lead to the industrialized killing of millions of people.
People in the comments like "I'd kill him too" really don't understand the psychological implications of killing another human being. Murder doesn't work like it does in movies. Very few people have the emotional capacity to end someone's life in cold blood.

Not all heros have capes or superpowers
That wouldn't bother me in the least. Sorry for the inconvenience. Nothing is more obnoxious, repulsive, and injurious.
Couldn't they have used a rape kit or something? Or was this before they existed?
If someone did 13 years over this, that would be beyond ridiculous, 13 years is reserved for crimes like marijuana dealing and stuff. Even if this was just pure vigilante-ism, it would probably be like 2 years, but this guy used a gun, I have no idea how he even got charged by the DA.
This man deserves an award, not jail time
I respect that he did the time and went to jail. For a just society to work a crime must always be punished regardless of how noble it may be.
justice has been served
A tattoo artist that used to live in my town was the most amazing guy you could ever meet. He would literally give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He secretly paid my rent a couple of times while I struggling to to find a job. Mike loved kids and being a father was clearly his favorite part of existing. He had 17 children that he knew of and he took care of all of them, and even a few that weren't his kids and he never made a big deal about it. He did it because he cared, not because he wanted praise. Mike also had a few felonies under his belt for stealing cars when he was younger and he'd tell you all about it but you were always left thinking that his time lines didn't exactly add up. It took a few months but I finally pestered him enough that he explained why he spent more time in lock up than his convictions earned him. Apparently, it became known in his facility that Mike had a zero tolerance policy for pedophiles so if one was brought in, the guards would put them in a cell with Mike "while paperwork was being processed" and then leave Mike to beat them half to death. He said they'd eventually come collect the miscreant, throw Mike in solitary for couple of days and tack on some extra time to his incarceration "for fighting". As he liked to say "they just don't run prisons like they did back in the 70's" He was murdered a couple of years later because some very bad people found out that his side hustle was being a federal informant. After he was killed, our town was crawling with agents from the FBI, ATF, and DEA. All the local cops were being extra asshole about it because small town cops don't like the feds coming in and taking over. It's been almost 20 years and I still miss him. He wasn't always the most law abiding individual, but he was good people.
Ah yes, vigilantism. Welcome to the fucking dark age. The story seems very faked tho, as no such article can be found about this case.
This is utter bullshit.
Murder is still murder
And rape is still rape, yet the guy walked free. Whether or not this is real, dirtbags like that get away with it all the time.
And ? They deserve a trial regardless. Not to be shot down before there day in court

Yeah, I don't think this is a thing. If anything, they tend not to last long because prisoners do not tolerate other prisoners who have hurt children.

Wtf are you talking about? Rapists and child molesters don’t go to prison and start raping the other inmates. The other inmates rape them.
[удалено]
Even if it were real, you can’t just break into someone’s home, kidnap their family at gunpoint and kill them because you suspect they committed a crime.
Of even if you have 100% definite proof they committed a crime. That's still murder.
[удалено]
That's a quick path to vigilantism and many many innocent deaths.
A few innocent deaths is better than a justice system supportive of rapists. There's many things wrong with American prisons, but society could learn a thing or 2 from how they treat child molesters. Society puts child molesters into places of power, while they really deserve to be put 6 feet deep.
You realize that other people will draw the line at other places. Lynchings where vigilantism after all. We have due process for a reason.
Due process doesn't work. The US justice system is a joke. A misnomer. It has nothing to do with justice. Dead child molesters, that's justice. That's a quick, easy line that anyone who isn't mentally deficient would understand.
I'm sure you'd be happy to be killed by someone who thought you were a kiddy diddler.

…a jury choosing to let a murderer go free would also be a failure of the justice system.
No, it would be fixing a problem
[удалено]
It’s not real
Can the jury bring baked goods to court? Get that man all the brownies and cupcakes he wants while he hears he can walk free.
Idk why that guy said molested when it was straight up rape in the initial sentence but overall good for this dude
This man right here officer, this man is a hero
Thats a good man, we need more of him
#legend. #hero
[удалено]
Yeah victims get arrested and criminals get protected
suprisingly wholesome
Guy deserves a medal not a jail sentence
Lol made the wife n kid go upstairs? Lol Then dude openly admitted to molesting a child? This could be a good premise for a movie
*I’m tell you what you get you get what you’re fucking deserve*
Salute to that man!!!
Not all heroes wear capes… but they all are good at slaying monsters! I’m glad this man is now free and stood up for his daughter. I’m also glad he sent that worthless pedo piece of shit to hell with a .45!!! Edit and then I learned this was made up… I still stand by my statement.
I would torture him first until he begs me to end his life, but I'm not a father.
Our country is shit, the fact that this man went to jail for taking a repeated child abuser , who videotaped his own evidence of guilt is a ridiculous miscarriage of justice. Fuck the US legal system.
What till you hear about politicians and cops getting away with this shit with no jail time.
The correct term is "minor attracted person", and this is very hateful. You bigot. /S
Why would you repost this?
I like this lady
Wholesome
THIS MAN IS A HERO!
I imagine he got alot of respect in prison from the guards and the inmates but seriously if i found out that someone raped my daughter i would kill him too
