Seems to me that Justice was served...by the father.

When a system is so broken that things like this are commonplace, I believe that anarchy is allowing people like this slimeball to continue to perpetrate their depravity on innocents...like another 4 year old. I only hope the poor child gets past this and goes on to have normal, happy life.

If you want to go Old Testament the Mosaic Law stated that the penalty for rape was death. Very simple eye for an eye did not apply. Hey I'm a poet and didn't know it!
