PHOENIX – Police say a man who tried to enter a teenage girl’s bathroom stall was confronted and killed by the girl’s father, KNXV reports.
According to Phoenix police, around 11:30 p.m. on August 2, 40-year-old Melvin Harris went to the QuikTrip near Dunlap and 19th avenues to pick up his teenage daughter and her friends.
A man, who would later become the victim, approached Harris’ car in the parking lot and asked for money. Harris gave him some money, and the man went into the QT.
Harris was later informed that a man tried to enter the bathroom stall his daughter was using. The teen told an employee, who in turn alerted an on-duty security guard.
Man who followed teen into restroom is beaten to death by girl’s father, police say
If you don't read the story, the ending is not very good. The father met the guy outside and beat him severely eventually causing his death. Now the protective father is facing second degree murder charges.
So question one: what gave this guy the idea it was okay to go into a girls restroom and even her stall?
Question two: would that have been okay had he been wearing a dress?
Question three: Assuming the charges will lead to a conviction, would a jury have more compassion for the intruder if he was wearing a dress?
I think we set a very negative precedent here during the last administration.
