Vigilante Action Back in the Spotlight Across US and Civil Rights Cases

Original: vigilante

Two vigilante-themed stories are drawing attention. In one, a Sellersville man who travelled over an hour by Uber intending to meet a teenage girl for sex was instead confronted by predator hunters and arrested by police. In another, coverage of 'By Any Means' highlights a secret team-up that helped solve a civil rights-era murder. Both raise questions about private citizens taking justice into their own hands.

Why now: Vigilante justice stories — online predator stings and crime-solving — are currently trending in Brazil-based searches and US coverage.
