No, I don't think forgiveness is a moral duty. I think forgiveness is something that's earned, and sometimes can't be earned. I also think if you forgive, it doesn't mean you should forget. Especially something this horrific.
If someone raped and killed one of my daughters, or one of my granddaughters, you'd have to restrain me and keep an eye on the asshole 24-7, because I would not be forgiving Most likely I would combine as many medival torture methods as possible. Something like flaying him alive, cauterizing the wounds, then letting rats devour his body as he's slowly pulled apart. Keeping him awake and conscious for as long as I possibly can. I'm sure my sister could figure it out. Depending on how vengeful I felt, I might take it out on his family as well. Because at that point I'd be a psychopath anyway.
