Update: Charges Dropped

A couple weeks ago I blogged about a ridiculous situation where a father was charged with assault for punching a man who tried to fondle his 4-year old son in a public bathroom.  Just wanted to pass along an update: Michelle Malkin reports receiving a message from the family indicating that all charges against the father have been dropped.  Congrats to the Beatrice family!

Unfortunately, the man who molested the child -- who was of Hispanic origin and didn't speak English, though no one bothered to check if he was in the country illegally -- did not show up for his arraignment.  It's too bad no one could have predicted that he wouldn't show up for his court date.  ...Ahem...  HELLO?!

Otherwise, a child molester may have been put behind bars rather than allowed to roam free.  Maybe he'll show up in San Francisco, where they have good values and a comprehensive sanctuary policy.

All joking aside, it truly saddens me to think of what damage he might do the next time he molests a child if a righteously angry father isn't right there to beat him down again.


There's my two cents.
