In 1984, an 11-year-old boy was raped for 1 year by his karate teacher, the pederast Jeffred Doucet, in California (USA), even being kidnapped and tortured in a motel.
The boy's father, upon finding out, disguised himself at the Louisiana airport where Doucet was going to be transferred for trial. When he passed by his side, he shot him in the head.
When asked why he did it, he replied: “I couldn’t stand it, he raped and tortured my 11-year-old son. If someone did that to your son, you would do it too.”
He was sentenced to 7 years, but served only 5 years of probation and 300 hours of community service, without entering prison.
At 67 years old, in an interview, he stated that he did not regret it and that he would do it again.
Someone asked me, "Why is it important to be kind?"
I replied: Because you never know who is grieving, exhausted, or at their breaking point. Your kindness might be the only bit of warmth they feel today.
