"Under the law, deadly force is justified to stop a sexual assault. All the evidence presented by the sheriff's department and the Texas Rangers indicated that was in fact what was occurring when the victim's father arrived at the scene." - Lavaca County (Texas) District Attorney Heather McMinn, talking after a decision was made not to charge the father who beat a man to death for sexually assaulting the dad’s 5-year-old daughter. Calls to 911 also revealed the father didn’t mean to kill the attacker.
News to know
A House committee panel said Attorney General Eric Holder should be cited for contempt of Congress for not turning over documents related to the Fast and Furious operation. The vote was strictly along partisan lines, and the Republican-majority panel voted he be held in contempt. The measure will go to the full House next week.
