Your lover was murdered in cold blood, and the murderer is let out on community service for 8 months due to inconclusive evidence. What's your move?

[HawkPerception]

Nothing. The law is the law, and this isn't the Wild West.

I'll find them and...

Nothing. It's out of my power. I'm not going to ruin my life for this.

[4ngelic]

depends what you mean by lover. if it was like a husband of 10 years, i think i'd definitely consider taking the law into my hands even at the expense of my freedom and happiness for decades to come. their murderer getting nothing would be intolerable to live with. otherwise i might fight tooth and nail to get a reevaluation of the conviction. if they were just a recent boyfriend, it would outrage me, upset me deeply maybe if i loved him, and i'd do some things to get him justice but i would never take the law into my own hands to an extreme extent for someone like that if i'm being honest.

[7Phoenix7]

They’d suffer… but I’d frame it so well it’d look like a natural consequence, not me 😇

[HawkPerception]

That's the intelligent way to go about it. That can be pretty difficult though 😂

I lost my wife in 2002 to a serial drunk driver. He had been arrested many times for DUI and having accidents.

He got 5 years. Got out after 3 years. With a list of priors nearly 3 pages long.

If it wasn't for my kids, He would be sleeping next to hoffa.

[matchrestore]

Yeah. Having a kid definitely changes the dynamic. I'm not going to risk ending up in jail or dead and unable to support my kid, as much as I'd want to inflict my own justice

[exitseven]

He would be disappeared without a trace. No evidence left behind and I would have an airtight alibi, not that I would be suspected because I would not do it right away.

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO😎

[AviatorTom]

I would probably pull a Liam Neeson... Need I say more?

[Effably]

Assuming I know it beyond any doubt and the law has failed? Said murderer will be praying they had been convicted.

An eye for an eye might make the world blind, does not mean someone gets to take your eye without consequence.

[RandomGirl42]

Oh, we have our ways.

[Crimsyjo]

I'd wanna murder the son of the bitch and God help me if I find him/her...

What's that officer? He disappeared without a trace damn that's wild I hope you find him.

[slatyb]

What were they convicted of doing? People aren't given community service unless there is a conviction or a guilty plea.

[HawkPerception]

Just assume the statement is true.

[slatyb]

Waste of time

[msg321]

Don't know but your question reminded me that song

[EveryDayIsPretzelDay]

No one knows the answer to a question like that, until it actually happens.

[darkcloud1945]

You can then call them fertilizer

[Zionne]

I'll surely find them

[Cidknee]

The first one. Let God handle it.

[NathanDavis]

lol...

[NathanDavis]

fun fact..

if you ever heard of tamales... it is said, that the original recipe, back in the day of the Aztec times, the tamales used to be as big as human

the reason for that, it is said... the meat in them was made out of rapists and murderers, and that was the way in wish they would be punished, and to appease the gods, they would become a sacrifice

[thegreenyogi]

Move far far away.
