He scared the kid which was probably good, just glad he didn't kill him or seriously hurt him. The 2 of them might have been playing out a fantasy. Would be horrible if someone was killed or seriously hurt over a misunderstanding. And as far as punishment, if he were in fact about to have sex with her against her will, I wouldn't have beat him to death. I'd let the law handle it. Rape is a terrible thing, but not deserving of death. Let the punishment fit the crime. Have the rapist tied up and raped himself maybe.
