Did you read the article? It sounds like she had escaped. Maybe her persecutor had psychological control over her but not physical, that makes it vigilantism.
The facts of the case are barely present in the public sphere because she was denied her self defense argument in court. It's entirely possible Volar had tracked down escaped women before and entirely possible she was in the process of escaping others working with him. Literally the only thing the prosecution said is that she traveled between cities.
And if this was vigilantism, why hasn't she gotten the same treatment as Kyle Rittenhouse? It's the same state but when she travels with a gun, gets in a fight and ends it she's not allowed the self defence argument he had?
No fight here.
Not according to her attorneys.
Obviously Chrystul is aware of all the facts and she decided that her actions didn't meet the legal definition of self defence.
They literally denied her the defense.
So Chrystul is aware of all the facts and understands that her actions didn't meet the legal definition of self defence ?
According to the system. That did give that defence to the guy who traveled to a protest to shoot people.
I need that F to doubt button.
