After seeing this case will potentially get this dude some prison/jail time, I think I would avoid head shots and, instead, break some fingers and arms. Vigilantism! RAWR!
1. No, he was protecting his daughter.
2. I don't think he is morally wrong for that. In his mind, that may have been the only way to protect his daughter.
3. probably the same thing this guy did. I would like to kill the guy, but in the end, how would that help my daughter? I would probably end up going to prison and missing out on being her father for several years. I would hope the law handles the violator after he recuperates from the beatdown and be there for my daughter.

This is something people keep bringing up. I agree that it is very important to get the daughter/son out of that situation. I would also think it important to make sure the daughter/son cleared the room before you delivered a "good ol' boy ass whoopin'" to the perv.
Breaking an arm or hand and kick to the nads would be enough. Anything more than that and it borders on twisted/frightening to me.
I still do not know how I would react, though. I may well bite his throat out and pull his heart out Or I could just push him down, pull my daughter away, and call the police. Don't know. I would hope I would have enough sense to do the latter instead of going psychopath on him. Then again, I would probably thoroughly enjoy or take pleasure, to my grave, in having beaten the shit out of a perv that had gotten my daughter.
1. Should the father serve any time for what he did (do we even know enough information)?
No. What good would it do? Maybe compensation for the dead person's family, but I don't see why HE would owe them anything.
2. Is the father morally wrong for hitting the man?
No. He was doing his best to protect his daughter. If he had some other way of stopping the molester that was less violent, I suppose it would be wrong, but molestation really hits a sore spot with most people. He probably wasn't thinking rationally at that point. Hell, even in the criminal justice, molestation is treated worse than murder.
3. What would you do if you walked in a person molesting your kid?
I would try to stop it, of course. Depending on how awful the molestation/rape was and how young my hypothetical daughter was, I would lose my temper and likely do what this guy did. If she was like, I don't know, 16 or something though, I would probably just tell the guy to get out until I found out whether it was consensual.
the father confessed that what he did was amoral simply by expressing regret of the outcome and that he never intended it. and for all the pitchfork/torch holders who say that rapists and molesters should all be executed, i only ask that you fast forway to 6:00 of this video and listen:
