A young Texas father who beat to death with his fists a man molesting his 5-year-old daughter will not be charged, authorities said as they released a dramatic 911 tape of the dad frantically pleading for help before the hired ranch helper died. Click below to read the rest of the story.
A Lavaca County grand jury Tuesday declined to indict the 23-year-old father in the death of Jesus Mora Flores, 47. Prosecutors said the grand jury reached same conclusion as police after reviewing the evidence: The father was authorized to use deadly force to protect his daughter.
Flores was killed June 9 on a family ranch so remote that the father is heard profanely screaming at a dispatcher who couldn’t locate the property.
“Come on! This guy is going to die on me!” the father yells. “I don’t know what to do!”
The Associated Press is not identifying the father in order to protect the daughter’s identity. The AP does not identify victims of sexual assault.
The tense, nearly five-minute 911 call begins with the father saying that he “beat up” a man found raping his daughter. The father grows increasingly frazzled, cursing and crying into the phone so loudly at times that the call often becomes inaudible.
At one point tells the dispatcher he’s going to put the man in his truck and drive him to a hospital before sheriff’s deputies finally arrive.
“He’s going to die!” the father screams. “He’s going to (expletive) die!”
he should have died!! fuck child molestors ae the bottom of the barrel!
