In the "Unknown Subject" episode, thought, I though Regina's evidence that he guy she abducted was her rapist was pretty equivocal - she was basing it on her memory of the music he played while he raped her and the tune the guy played in the piano bar. As it turned out, she had the right guy - but she could just as easily have been wrong.
There was an old TV show - "Twilight Zone" or one of those - where a woman who had been raped pointed out her attacker to her husband, who promptly went out and killed the man. Afterwards, the next time they went out, she pointed out another man who she said was her attacker. It turned out that she had been so traumatized that she was seeing her attacker everywhere she went.
Sometimes the guilty go free, and sometimes the process is perverted (as in the Simpson case), but if we condone people killing other people just because they think they need to die, where does it end?
