Tough one. Though, as a mother of a daughter... I would have done the same thing. Well, maybe not with gasoline... Put yourself in her shoes. As a parent, you want to protect your children. She was unable to protect her daughter from the rape. She lives with the guilt, even though it was not her fault. Then this slimball is released on a 3 day furlow? Would never happen in the US.. Walks by the mother and taunts her? I could see that being the staw that broke the camels back. She probably had no idea what she was doing, in a rage of loathing and protecting her daughter.. Sad, very sad!
