I am all for vigilante justice and I think it is a missing component in today's society, but something doesn't feel right in this story, and I am thinking the father is the bad guy here.

It does say something about where I am coming from. I mentioned it last, because it would be a last resort. More than likely the father and daughter do not have a close relationship, otherwise why would she be seeking out an old man to fulfill her emotional needs?

We can't really make that kind of judgement on this though. There are many possibilities. He could have been coercing her, but there's still the possibility they loved each other
......... So while I am trying to steer clear of making assumptions, we can probably say that this guy didn't have the evidence to prove his daughter was being coerced or abused in any way.

I understand your situation and am not judging you. I can understand how you relate to this circumstance. As I have said, you do not hear this as a common occurrence, people killed over this, because you are in love. Looking at it as an individual case, the signs seem to point to my conclusion, in my opinion of course
I suggest the law be a rational one where no adult is permitted to date someone under the age of 18 without the minor’s parent’s consent.

You could be right. But also the same is true when it comes to branding this father as insane, taking into account only the factor of 'true love'. People are so quick to demonize this man and his emotion with no information . But we must take a step back
