(CNN) -- A Texas father caught a man sexually assaulting his 4-year-old daughter and punched him in the head repeatedly, killing him, authorities said.
The father was casually acquainted with the alleged abuser, said Lavaca County Sheriff Micah Harmon.
Neither has been publicly identified.
The girl was left inside the family's house during the social gathering, while other members of her family were tending to horses, the sheriff said.
The alleged abuser was known for his horse-grooming abilities, Harmon said.
The father returned to the house, caught the man in the act, and stopped him by striking him in the head several times, Harmon said.
The man was pronounced dead on the scene, while the daughter was taken to a local hospital in Victoria, Texas, for examinations before being released.
The incident took place Saturday.
Harmon described the girl as "OK besides the obvious mental trauma."
Asked whether they would press charges against the father, the sheriff responded, "You have a right to defend your daughter. He acted in defense of his third person. Once the investigation is completed we will submit it to the district attorney who then submits it to the grand jury, who will decide if they will indict him."
Harmon described the dad as "very remorseful," adding that he didn't know the man was going to die.
Authorities were withholding the deceased man's name while they notified next of kin. Officials did not know immediately if he has a prior criminal history.

I would have done the same too. It's great that the Texas police did not arrest him.

What if the father killed this man, then used his daughter as a scape goat...the dead can't testify...

sorry been watching too much Law & Order...but things aren't always what they seem..

If this was true, then hell yah i'll kill the son of a bitch too, and then take a piss on his corpse

Yes Dead men tell no tales, but TX has the right to protect you home with force, I think he would have been better off shooting the guy and claim self defense. The dad may have some serious legal problems coming in the future.

I would have just chopped off his nuts and let him die a slow death.

article says 'caught in the act' so if that was the case, then there could be a DNA test for proof.

Litos · 06-11-2012, 02:24 PM

the dad went about it the right way.

good for him.

Or perhaps a teen murdered without provocation and the murderer using self-defense "stand your ground" law in his defense....

upstatedoc · 06-11-2012, 02:58 PM

not guilty!

ragingclue · 06-11-2012, 03:04 PM

I'm glad it happened in Texas.

I wonder how many states would try to send him away forever. I know I probably live in one.

Sexual abuse doesn't necessarily mean intercourse, i.e. could be fondling, etc.

Sara504 · 06-11-2012, 04:45 PM

I applaud him.

not again...

kevinbahnz · 06-11-2012, 05:58 PM

Good for him,. I have a 4 year old daughter too and who ever tries to touch her would be pummeled to death.

BMWinNorthdakota · 06-11-2012, 06:05 PM

Given that they dont prosecute him, he saved the taxpayers some money.

Who wouldn't rage if they saw some fucking creep fondling their kid?
