No charge for Texas dad who killed daughter's rapist
A US father who found his five-year-old daughter being raped, then beat the attacker to death will not be charged, prosecutors have said.
The 23-year-old man told police he found the girl being assaulted on Saturday 9 June by Jesus Mora Flores in a rural part of southern Texas.
A grand jury has declined to indict the man, finding that he was allowed to use deadly force to protect his daughter.
The father has not been named to protect the identity of his daughter.
The Lavaca County district attorney and sheriff announced the man would not face charges, as they held a news conference on Tuesday.
