If this was me and my husband.....the outcome would have been the same if not worse. Being a victim of rape.....its the worst thing to ever go through. I would rather be set on fire a thousand times than to go through that again. CUDOS to the father. If more people would do this instead of letting the law handle it.....i can almost guarantee these damn child molesters will start thinking twice before committing this crime.
