Caught, discovered, observed, seen, noted, discerned, etc...
Doesn't honestly matter to me what word is used, I don't see how it would change the meaning. The great misogynist in the sky doesn't care unless there's a third party. Again going back to the word of a man against that of property. I take issue with whatever translation you care use.
Defense of this verse and whatever moral or parabolic teachings it's trying to impart is simply idiotic, like most of the bible.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!
