The problem with vigilantism isn't so much the monopoly on force nor the morality but rather the ability to discern reality. Especially in cases as incredulous as this if there is no compelled discovery, then what do we use to ground the truth?
Great explanation. Many abusers were victims themselves. Only God knows the truth. We do our best to use our brains, not emotions. Gather what evidence we can, and base our judgement on that.
Above all I hope that we collectively avoid becoming the monsters we seek to destroy.
Which is why rule of law errors on the side of defending the guilty. It's not ideal but perpetuating the slaying of the innocent is even more abhorrent imo. FWIW- homelessness seems to breed exploitation and is an accessible way that the average person can make a difference.

What do you mean about homeless and average people doing something?
A lot of people don't care and just pass by. What would you do to help if you witnessed such?
I can't become a jew.
