This is a genuine question.

I have a hard time with this. My righteous side wants him to face an appropriate sentence, but my pessimistic side thinks this might have set a great example for CEOs to always maintain a level of humanity or face unforseen consequences.

P.S. this topic is highly controversial and I want actual opinions so let’s be civil.

And if you’re a mod, delete this if the post is inappropriate or if it gets too heated.

    You’re citing a problem with our justice system though. Yes, that should be fixed, but it’s not the same as justifying vigilante justice. This should not be condoned. The system’s inability to prosecute and convict should be.

      Yes, it would be easy to misinterpret my comment as condoning vigilantism, which was not my intention. I’m not going to shed a tear for that guy either.
