In Spain, a 13-year-old girl was kidnapped and raped by a neighbor. The attacker was sentenced to only 9 years in prison.
After serving just 6 years of his sentence, he was released on parole and returned to the city. One day he ran into the girl’s mother near a bus stop.
He asked her with a mocking tone: “How’s your daughter doing?” That was her breaking point. She bought gasoline, went back, doused him with it, and set him on fire.
The man suffered severe burns and died a couple days later.
