‘WHEN DOES IT MOVE BEYOND SELF-DEFENSE?’: CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER QUESTIONS TEXAS DAD‘S KILLING OF DAUGHTER’S MOLESTER Now, a Texas civil rights leader has come out and questioned the father’s choice to “summarily execute” the alleged attacker without due process.

James Harrington, director of the Texas Civil Rights Project in Austin, said the dad had the right to “defend” his daughter but suggests he may have gone to far due to “anger.”

“Assuming it’s true that this guy was molesting the daughter, and we don’t know what exactly happened at this point, he would then have the right to defend [her], and hit him enough to have him stop,” Harrington told FoxNews.com. “But you cannot summarily execute him, even though I can understand the anger he would have.” Harrington reportedly went on to say that, without specific knowledge of the case, he was “surprised” that the girl’s dad had not been charged yet.

“The question is: When does it move beyond self-defense?” he asked.

But as Hot Air points out, the Texas penal code is pretty clear and it appears that the Texas father was not only morally justified but legally as well. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/06/12/texas-district-attorney-... The grand jury will ultimately decide what charges -- if any -- the girl’s father will face, McMinn said.
Relatives of the 47-year-old dead man -- who is from Gonzales and does not appear to have a criminal record -- had not been located as of Tuesday, McMinn said. His name will not be released until those relatives are found, she said.
“My understanding is that they are looking for family members in Mexico,” McMinn said.
Harmon, who could not be reached for comment Tuesday, said earlier that no evidence has led investigators to doubt the father’s account, he said.
“There doesn’t appear to be any reason other than what he told us,” Harmon said.
The victim was an “acquaintance” of the father who visited the ranch to help care for some horses, according to Harmon, adding he did not know how long the men may have known each other prior to the alleged incident.
The girl’s father notified police late Saturday afternoon that he attacked a man he caught attempting to sexually assault his daughter near a barn where horses were kept, Harmon said.
“In the course of trying to get her away from him, and protect her, he struck the subject several times in the head and the subject died,” Harmon said.
The girl was taken to a hospital to be examined and was later released, Harmon said. The victim's body was taken to the Travis County medical examiner's office for an autopsy. Authorities are still awaiting those results, McMinn said.
