If this man was put in jail for the rest of his life at that point instead of killed, he would still not be able to offend again. Unless you mean the child would be able to recover better if the man was dead verses behind bars? Is this what you mean?

I apologize CL because I did not see this question but I wasn't ignoring you.
How do you know the father would have been in jail for the rest of his life? There is no guarantee that her husband would be found guilty even if child molestation carried a life sentence.
She saw that her child was in danger so at that moment, she defended him. I have no idea if the child would have been better or not if the man was in jail.
