20 year old Rick Adams of Eastlake Ohio came across a 17 year old male molesting a 5 year old boy. Having been molested himself as a child, it seems he snapped a little and worked the teen rapist over pretty good. Police were called, and charged the teen with rape...and Adams with felonious assault, potentially carrying 2-8 years in the pokey.
So. Defending another is normally a justifiable use of force against a bad guy. Is felonious assault the correct charge here, and should he have been charged at all? Viscerally, I think not.
Possible mitigating factor: Adams also posted a pic on his facebook page of the bloodied-up teen rapist, since deleted.
