Mom Beats Man With Baseball Bat For Allegedly Molesting Her Sons

A 27-year-old mother of two young boys (eight and nine years of age) is being charged with assault after nearly beating a community coach to death for allegedly molesting her sons. “I asked my son, ‘Did he touch you bad, did he touch you down there?’ And my little boy said ‘Yes,’ and I said ‘Was it just you?’ And he said ‘No, he touched some more kids,’” Richmond told a local news station.

Richmond’s concerns were heightened when she received a phone call from the head coach of the community football team, located in Memphis, Tennessee, on Saturday requesting a meeting with the coach who allegedly molested her sons. As she made her way to the meeting, Richmond spotted the alleged child molester, Coach Red, during her commute. “He was running away,” said Richmond. “I didn’t say anything to him I just blinked out. When I saw him, I saw my kids being hurt, that’s it.”

Neighbors saw Richmond chase the coach down the street to a neighbor’s carport and beat the man with a bat. “There was blood splattered all over my carport,” said a neighbor Jackie Woods. “She beat his head open, split his head.“ Richmond says she did call police to report the coach but everything happened quickly. “I was hoping the police made it to him before I did,” said Richmond. “He was saying he didn’t do it and he was sorry. If you didn’t do it why are you saying you’re sorry? What are you sorry for?” Neighbors don’t believe Richmond should have been taken to jail for beating the coach.

“They’re suffering, they toss and turn at night, and they really just ain’t been sleeping because they’ve been scared. They were even scared to tell me. I mean I’m their mom,” stated Richmond. “If I don’t protect them then who will?”

Yep, because vigilante justice is a flawless, fair system...

Yay let's go around and smack suspects with baseball bats. Arr matey bash that pervy git with a morning star yeeeha! We don't need the police or a judicial system. *head desk*

What made her ask her kids that? Kids are conditioned(feel a need to..etc) to say yes when their parents ask them a yes or no question..without proof, she was in the wrong.

If he did do it, he still should have been sent to prison..etc not beaten half to death. You have to follow the law of the land.

[Woodrow]

The problem is unless you have actually witnessed the person doing what he is alleged to have done, you do not know if the allegation is true.

Should we as Muslims agree with what was recently done in Bolivia?

(Newser) – Sometimes it takes a village … to enact vigilante justice on an alleged teenage murderer. When police identified 17-year-old Santos Ramos as a suspect in the rape and murder of a 35-year-old near the small Bolivian town of Colquechaca, residents took matters into their own hands. During his alleged victim's Wednesday funeral, a crowd of more than 200 descended on Ramos, tied him up, and tossed him into the woman's still-open grave next to her coffin, the BBC reports.

The grave was then filled with dirt, burying Ramos alive and presumably killing him. Residents apparently also blocked the road to prevent police from intervening. The AP notes it wasn't the only lynching carried out on Wednesday in Potosi province: Residents of Tres Cruces attacked two suspected thieves who were alleged to have robbed a car and killed its driver; one was stoned to death, the other burned alive.

SOURCE

They were suspects and not even formally accused or charged with any crimes. They may have been guilty, but it was not proven nor was there even probable cause for them to be arrested. Vigilante justice is mob rule and is very often in error.

True, very often children will give the answer they think their parents want to hear.

[sister herb]

Was this beating of couch happened in the USA? I think that many in there just overreact to normal touching what hasn´t nothing sexual behind. It might be just as incentive slap to the backside.

[UmmuShaheed]

Subhanallah, Thats really tragic, if he's guilty of actually doing it. Id try and figure more out before decided to end his life. Then again, I don't know what I'd do in that situation. May allah protect us, and our offspring.

[introspective]

There you have it.

White 'Merica's so called 'social orderliness and progress' is a farce. Ever heard of 'white flight'?

I mean there is National Registry of Sex Offenders (you can search by city or zip code) yet there is no accessible list for gun ownership, list of people charged with DUI/DWI, list of people charged with grand larceny?

I'm not trying to take a cheap shot at white people in general, but some of them can be quite insular and naive.

[Iceee]

So I went to the website of the article. At the bottom, there are Facebook comments which are very disturbing.

We should look at evidence first before reacting. The kids say things that they think is right to their parents because that is what the parents want to hear.

Neighbors don’t believe Richmond should have been taken to jail for beating the coach.

Um. Okay.

But if he is found guilty, I'd be all for her having 5 minutes with her beating him half to death with a baseball bat.

[Abz2000]

Can be true, however the type of "justice" we are seeing from these taghut governments is often twisted and satanic too, just adding that lest we forget the wolves running the show.

And that coach was running if he wasn't guilty he wouldn't have be running away from that lady.

Glad I'm not in the east then. I thought Muslims were supposed to be all about justice? What happened to the legal system, and actually finding out if a person is guilty? You think we're allowed to just take the law into our own hands whenever we feel like it?

[Periwinkle18]

I'm not saying its good there's no justice system hea.

If these ppl would have followed the Islamic Shariah law there would have been justice buh they arnt so this is the way it is ppl protect themselves like this.

This is the reason y ppl r standing up in different countries they want Islam they want the Islamic law so that there's peace n justice...

[Periwinkle18]

Him running says nothing about his guilt

Y was he sorry then?

[sister herb]

If someone runs towards of you with some bat aiming to hit you, I am sure you will run too... and say what ever to stop attacker.

But yes, if they would use shariah in they society, this may never happens.

Indeed it is better than a system that makes guilty innocent based on their pocket book & social status, one that bleeds the tax payers, one that doesn't serve a swift justice nor rehabilitates the guilty. Where have you been? Read something about the American justice system and you'll be clued in as to why many would rather seek it with their own hands.
here's one just from a couple of days ago:

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/06/05...-for-woman-in/

frankly the entire 'justice system' in the west is a joke. Come again when the folks at gitmo get a fair trial, when children in Yemen aren't droned and when known killers aren't set free after an alleged fair trial.

"The justice system" in the West is meant to people of the West, the Westerner. Western justice system might be very different to the people whose live in the "East". It might differ by any political situation of the Western country they might have at that time.

By the way, have you read a story called as "The American good night story"?

[جوري]

I thought justice was blind and about well justice? It is unfortunate indeed that the day has come when folks have absolutely no trust in their system or their govt. What is sad is that there are folks who'd defend it still when it is so clear case after case what a sham it is.
I have fought in the system myself in a case related to a multi car accident caused on a winter day by a drunken woman, somehow and to this day I am utterly surprised how she got the other people to pay for everything & was exonerated herself from any charges. I have seen first hand how it works in something as minor as a car accident. I am frankly appalled.

But this was based on presumed rather than proven guilt. How can that be defensible?

[glo]

The legal system may not be perfect - but there is no excuse for taking the law into your own hands in such a manner on a whim and a rumour!

Innocent until proven guilty is by far the better principle than dishing out punishment on the off-chance the the recipient is guilty.

Muslims aren't always good representatives of Islam (sadly)
Islam is all about honesty, and the Islamic justice system .
The people in the east generally tend to trust each other more and hence why they'd all take part in serving the offender with their form of justice
(It may not be the Islamic way to deal with things, but it's their form of justice lol however wrong it may seem to an outsider)

In the UK most cases are treated in accordance with the law. There are a few cases where there is corruption and individuals are mistreated. However, there are not as common.

In fact it is exactly the same, since east and west are running by a western drafted governance.

Bahar Ahmad is an exception.

I'll mention a few.

To punish offenders through imprisonment/fines.
To reduce crime through deterrence.
To reform and rehabilitate offenders.
To protect the publish.

In the UK the main focus is on rehabilitating offenders.

Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: Judges are of three types, one of whom will go to Paradise and two to Hell. The one who will go to Paradise is a man who knows what is right and gives judgment accordingly; but a man who knows what is right and acts tyrannically in his judgment will go to Hell; and a man who gives judgment for people when he is ignorant will go to Hell.

Narrated AbuHurayrah: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: If anyone seeks the office of judge among Muslims till he gets it and his justice prevails over his tyranny, he will go to Paradise; but the man whose tyranny prevails over his justice will go to Hell.

Narrated AbuMas'ud al-Ansari: AbdurRahman ibn Bishr al-Ansari al-Azraq said: Two men from the locality of Kindah came while AbuMas'ud al-Ansari was sitting n a circle. They said: Is there any man who decides between us. A man from the circle said: I, AbuMas'ud took a handful of pebbles and threw at him, saying: Hush! It is disapproved to make haste in decision.

Narrated Anas ibn Malik: The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: If anyone desires the office of Judge and seeks help for it, he will be left to his own devices; if anyone does not desire it, nor does he seek help for it, Allah will send down an angel who will direct him aright.

Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) sent me to the Yemen as judge, and I asked: Apostle of Allah, are you sending me when I am young and have no knowledge of the duties of a judge? He replied: Allah will guide your heart and keep your tongue true. When two litigants sit in front of you, do not decide till you hear what the other has to say as you heard what the first had to say; for it is best that you should have a clear idea of the best decision. He said: I had been a judge (for long); or he said (the narrator is doubtful): I have no doubts about a decision afterwards.

Glad we're in agreement then. Justice should be blind.. But when you've 12 jurors planting the American flag in the middle of the table when the accused is a Muslim, I have my doubts to a fair trial. And when a maniac as we see happening everyday literally everyday mass murdering at malls, school, theatre, and being granted a reduced sentence either in a hotel like room or an insane asylum or free all together it kind of takes your faith in the system away.
I am not sure personally how I'd feel if I saw one of my young relatives being molested. I do know it happened to my relatives where the head of the family in this case dragged the man accused of molestation to the 9th floor to dump him from the balcony were it not for the neighbors interfering. And only so my relative wouldn't end up in jail when he has young kids and a family not because the man wasn't guilty everyone saw him and everyone was disgusted by him. He got off otherwise with a public humiliation and banishment from that lane but possibly he went somewhere else and was more careful about the kids he molested.
Until people taste injustice truly taste it will they understand and relate to anyone who decides to take matters into their own hand.

I have no concern for the lady to defend her one way or the other nor the accused in this case. I am speaking generally of how a system should work not how the system actually works.
Also I don't pretend to know about the law otherwise when it comes to nuances of specific cases unless I were called in to give medical evidence on a case I am personally involved in and you know 12 random people from the street would know even less so from the get go I find the system flawed in the way it is constructed.

[Ali Mujahidin]

this is the difference between east and west. In the east the whole neighborhood would be beating him and no one would be charged.

In Thailand, if the police arrive a bit late, they will just be collecting the corpse.

I have personally seen one man on the steps of the police station early one morning. He was badly beaten up, his clothes torn and bloodied, his face swollen and his teeth broken. I asked the policeman, what happened and he said,

"The villagers caught him stealing a pair of slippers."

Now, I have lived among the people of Thailand for two decades and I can say for a certainty that they are a peaceful people and very definitely not people who would kill at the drop of a pin, or, in this case, just because of a pair of slippers. I am very sure, without supporting evidence, that the man I saw on the steps of the police station must have been a notorious character in his village who had been the prime suspect in a lot of thefts. So that morning they must have caught him red-handed and much as I believe in a fair trial and all that, I think what the villagers did in that case solved the problem very neatly and justice was served. I seriously doubt if the man who was beaten would think about stealing anything for a long while.

Now, about the woman who hit the man with a bat for molesting her sons.

If I were her, I would have probably done the same. Of course, I would ask him about it first, but if he answered by saying sorry, as the woman said, then I would consider it an open and close case. Like she said, why say sorry if you haven't done anything wrong? Actually I would beat him over the head just to knock him out, so that I can castrate him more easily.

Do I sound bloodthirsty? Am I uncivilized? Don't I have any clue about justice and fair trials and all that?

I don't know. Maybe the media is lying about this issue. I mean, just look at all those reports about child abusers who re-offend as soon as they are released. Is that justice? When we talk about justice, I strongly believe the first priority must be the victim not the perpetrator. When the law bends over backwards to protect the perpetrator, in the name of justice, then I strongly suggest that the law should just bend over and get it right right where it deserves.

And that coach was running if he wasn't guilty he wouldn't have be running away from that lady.

Isn't that the same thing as what happened to the Chechen brothers. They ran after and we say they are innocent. :)

Of course. I know there are some silly films and people spreading nonsense like saying "In Islam, when a man accuses a woman of doing something wrong, she is automatically guilty until proven innocent.". I hope you didn't come across one of these hogwash and actually bought it.

No, I didn't. :)

I just wanted to reiterate that establishing the GUILT of the accused before deciding on any punishment is paramount in any good legal system.

Yes, you do sound bloodthirsty and uncivilized. And if you were to actually act in such a way, you really should be locked up. He may have said sorry just to calm the lady down or just as a reflex or as being empathetic for her loss. You don't know. Maybe he said sorry because he failed to prevent the kids from some other guy molesting them or from catching the guy who did it as he ran away. You don't know. And you shouldn't be ripping the man's bits off in some bloodthirsty rage of vengeance. How would you feel if you did that and then later found out he didn't do it, the kids were never molested, or somebody else did it and not him? Should you then be treated the same way you treated him? Without due process? With an angry mob?

I don't know. Maybe the media is lying about this issue. I mean, just look at all those reports about child abusers who re-offend as soon as they are released. Is that justice?

[Abz2000]

Has anyone read the book "a time to kill" by John Grisham? Quite a riveting read.
Carl Lee Hailey offs the men who abused his daughter and even the cop who got shot by Carl in the process calls him a hero,
Carl later gets acquitted by a jury on the basis of temp ins,
Felt about right.
nice to know they didn't charge the woman with attempted murder - seems like the cops have a good idea about it.

In Islam, vigilante justice is not preferable, but when it happens, there are numerous cases where the guilt of the killer is checked afterwards, and was also acquitted.
Remember how the Prophet pbuh rushed to respond to the humiliation of a Muslim lady and killing of a Muslim man by Banu qainuqa?
I don't remember him (pbuh) condemning the dead Muslim man for angrily killing the sicko who pegged the cloak.
If that woman felt violated I believe it was a moment of justified temporary insanity.
What only waits is to find out if she killed an innocent man.

In Thailand, if the police arrive a bit late, they will just be collecting the corpse.

I have personally seen one man on the steps of the police station early one morning. He was badly beaten up, his clothes torn and bloodied, his face swollen and his teeth broken. I asked the policeman, what happened and he said,

"The villagers caught him stealing a pair of slippers."

Now, I have lived among the people of Thailand for two decades and I can say for a certainty that they are a peaceful people and very definitely not people who would kill at the drop of a pin, or, in this case, just because of a pair of slippers.

did not read the thread except the title. Don't know what's the relation between child molest and marraige .

Young marriage is valid if parents and both girl and boy agree . There is a strong opinion that the girl should start the married life with husband after her puberty as Mother Aisha ra did . But these are off topic here .

[faithandpeace]

Assalamu alaikum. I can understand the mother being beyond furious for what she believed was true about her son being horribly victimized. On the other hand, a healthy and just society must have a system where the accused are found guilty and punished on the basis of evidence demonstrating their guilt. She did act impulisively before firm evidence was established. On the other hand, the justice system in place currently does not provide for any sense of justice as it does not adequately punish those who commit these crimes. I don't see how any mother would feel any sense of justice knowing that the man who molested or raped her child was simply going to get a number of years in prison complete with the amenities of TV, decent food, exercise, and entertainment. If rapists and child molesters instead were beheaded or stoned to death, there is a reasonably good chance that such crimes would drastically decrease. Not only would the trash be removed from society forever, it would send a message to others to think twice about what they do. The justice system in place now is not an effective nor a civilized one. As a result, it is not surprising that people do take the law into their own hands. Two wrongs do not make a right either, however.

:sl: the relevance of that detour is a conundrum only Karl can answer I've a clue but hope my hunch inaccurate!
Being promised to each other as an agreement between parents a practice usually out of interest practiced by king and queens to keep thrones in their family is indeed an ancient practice but the 'children' in spite of their ill fate were still waited on to meet the conditions of marriage we didn't have three year olds married to 11 year olds because their families decided their fate- furthermore they could breech that contract since there's no marriage without consent!
And :Allah::swt: knows best,

[Futuwwa]

If rapists and child molesters instead were beheaded or stoned to death, there is a reasonably good chance that such crimes would drastically decrease.

On the other hand, it would make rapists and child molesters likely to kill their victims to decrease the risk of getting caught. If an amoral criminal knows he's getting executed anyway if caught, he has nothing to lose and everything to gain by committing further crimes and silencing witnesses forever.

They have the death penalty in many countries where crime is still rampant (the US is one). It's hardly been a deterrent there. And I'd like to think that, in 2013, we could say that beheading and stoning people to death is barbaric and disgusting.

As an opponent of the death penalty, I just think it seems incredibly hypocritical to say "Killing is a sin. You mustn't kill. If you kill someone, we kill you." So killing's bad, except when it's ok....

A friend of mine was murdered a while back. His killer (seemingly a random killing) was never caught. I'd like to see his killer caught and brought to justice, sent to jail for life. I don't want to see him killed.

There's no evidence that the death penalty reduces crime. To say that people who are against the death penalty side with criminals is utter nonsense.

Also the whole death penalty doesn't change things is a rumor run by well opponents of the death penlaty. All we need to do is compare crime rates in places where they impose it verses those that don't!

This is how I would have handled it if I had a son who got groped by a man. My son complains to me about it, I would just say "tell him you are not gay and you don't like being groped and if he keeps doing it you will report him to the police". If my son was gay and liked doing things with men he would probably not tell me for fear that I would not be pleased with him, so I would be none the wiser.

Sentences should be about public safety and deterence for the same guy or others doing the act (which may or may not mean killing the guy who did it), and possibly rehabilitation. It should never be about blood lust or vengeance.

Better to smach his skull in for groping your kids then to tell your kid go ask him for some more love. Like i said, you wouldn't understand, it takes real maternal/paternal love to protect your kids, animals understand it better than most of your kind.

Salam alaykum

Is this what islam teach? Learn to behave like animals? Better to take law to your own hands without proper evidences and forget that there is a law and judges?

If it is asked: who is it that should carry out this hadd punishment for zina?

The answer is:

No one should carry out the hadd punishments without the permission of the ruler. If there is no ruler who rules according to sharee’ah then it is not permissible for the ordinary people to carry out the hadd punishments. Whoever does that is sinning, because carrying out the hadd punishments requires examining the matter and requires shar’i knowledge in order to know the conditions of proof.

The ordinary people have no knowledge of such things, and the carrying out of one of the hadd punishments by the ordinary people leads to many evils and the loss of security, whereby people will attack one another and kill one another or chop off one another’s hands on the grounds that they are carrying out hadd punishments.

Al-Qurtubi said:

There is no dispute among the scholars that qisaas (retaliatory punishments) such as execution cannot be carried out except by those in authority who are obliged to carry out the qisaas and carry out hadd punishments etc, because Allaah has addressed the command regarding qisaas to all the Muslims, and it is not possible for all the Muslims to get together to carry out the qisaas, which is why they appointed a leader who may represent them in carrying out the qisaas and hadd punishments.

Tafseer al-Qurtubi, 2/245, 246.

Ibn Rushd al-Qurtubi said:

With regard to the one who should carry out this punishment – i.e., the hadd punishment for drinking alcohol – they agreed that the ruler should carry it out, and that applies to all the hadd punishments.

Gun laws of the U.S were initially passed to keep the govt. in check a govt. that governs least governs best type thing. More restriction on guns guarantees only criminals walking around with them- they're not exactly scrupulous at obtaining or using them. Meanwhile the rest are powerless and helpless to govt. thugs and criminals alike
So enjoy that brave new world!

And it was a good idea at the time perhaps. But there are no militias now in the same way as back then. Times change.

The idea that gun controls mean criminals running riot with guns while the gunless public cowers in their houses is absolutely ludicrous. The rest of the world doesn't have the gun problem the US does. In the UK and Europe as a whole gun crime is still a relatively rare thing.

More guns = more safety is utter NRA nonsense.

:haha: then I urge you to have a look again at history with a more keen discerning eye. The newbies didn't amass all that land by being one with govt. that wasn't even formed.

ludicrous doesn't an argument make. You should form a complete soci-economic and geo-political picture before reaching a conclusion.

Nothing at all to do with safety and everything to do with a good system of checks and balances. People give up their rights out of fear of oppression by their govt. not out of a desire for safety. In fact the U.S now is equivalent to any third world country in terms of despotic govt. and a very ailing economy. And sadly no spiritual compass to keep the folks in check naturally. Crime happens because of all those factors.
