Man turns himself in after killing two child molestors- should he be punished?   
 
Man turns self in after 2 child molesters killed
He reportedly confessed in 911 call after murders in Washington state

Sept. 6, 2005 Full Story here

In washington today, Michael Anthony Mullen, 36, turned himself in for killing 2 child sex offenders. Reportedly, Mullen impersonated a FBI agent in order to gain access to the home of a Level 3 child molestor and kill him. (A Level 3 is a child molestor that is likely to reoffend.)
He also killed one of the mans roomates, who was also a level 3 molestor, but let a third man leave (the third man was also a child molestor, but I don't know what level he was)

Mullen found the names and address of the child molestors off the local Sherriff's website. He apparently had no other link to them.




Should this guy be punished for killing Level 3 sex offenders?
Can I copy an entire news article from a commercial news web site

9/6/2005 11:02:14 AM   From:  Aery   Honestly, he needs to be held responsible. I would understand if one of his loved ones had been one of their victims but they weren't. We have a system for a reason, even if its flawed. The fact that he turned himself in quickly thereafter tells me he might have wanted the attention. And if this man is not punished, it would encourage vigilantism to increase. Leading to people that might still be on trial that haven't even been found guilty yet. Like I said, I would have pity on him if it had been a loved one he was avenging but it just isn't the case here.

9/6/2005 11:28:29 AM   From:  BCAR    Sorry, you just can't go around killing people. Unless he's poor or disadvantaged be may be able to get by.
9/6/2005 11:31:18 AM   From:  eddo   I can't help but wonder- why the third roomate, who was also a sex offender, wasn't a target?
9/6/2005 11:34:52 AM   From:  BCAR   Same here, and why was he allowed to leave, and then come back?
9/6/2005 11:35:53 AM   From:  MrsK   Poor disadvantaged people don't have a right to murder either BCAR. You are getting just as bad as someother people I know who just love to twist what people say so it suits your purpose. I honestly expected more from you.
9/6/2005 11:37:56 AM   From:  BCAR   Maybe they had food in the fridge and he was hungry.
9/6/2005 1:54:01 PM   From:  doheney   i suppose he should be punished. the law and all that, and yet i can't feel too sorry, i just don't have it in me.
9/6/2005 5:37:37 PM   From:  LiquidSnake   He should be punished, but I'd be cheering him all the way to the electric chair LOL.
9/6/2005 5:44:53 PM   From:  ghost-chick   Yes he should be punished.
9/6/2005 6:02:55 PM   From:  Crash   He should be given a medal. Maybe if we killed all the sex offenders like this, we would help stop it from happening.
9/6/2005 8:23:00 PM   From:  EatMyBubbles   As MissC said, murder is murder. So, yes he should be punished.
9/6/2005 8:24:57 PM   From:  MrsK   Crash, very unfortunately it would not not stop it form happening.
9/7/2005 11:00:49 AM   From:  RITZBE   2 wrongs dont make a right...We cant just go around killing people because we think they deserve it...He should be held accountable 
9/8/2005 4:59:47 AM   From:  Gus   According to our laws, he must be tried by a jury of his peers. 
9/10/2005 4:42:56 PM   From:  Crash   Better yet, kill all sex offenders, and then it isn't an issue.
9/10/2005 11:34:51 PM   From:  Gus   Don't kill 'em, just remove their sex device. 
9/11/2005 4:08:01 PM   From:  Crash   kill them. They claim removing their sex device doesn't help. Besides, rid the world of the sorry bastards.
