Maybe I am old fashioned but if that happened to my wife or daughter there would be no need for a judge. The guy might need a doctor or two to sew his head back on but that would be the end of it.
My thoughts exactly. If the guy did this to my wife or daughter, he would have the reasonable expectation of getting his butt kicked. If I couldn't get it done, my sons certainly could and would have less mercy than I might.
