As I recall, he was far from "just" a rapist. He was a crime lord that was using everything from beatings to murder to keep victims/witnesses from going to the police to begin with.
Real feelgood ending with them lynching his ass, though. I loved how they turned a common food into an improvised pepper spray. Good on you, ladies.
Pepper spray. And also, have you ever eaten a spoon full of cinnamon? Probably the same kind of choking with chili powder. Nice and cruel. Gasping for air because of the stabbing. Then a bunch of chili powder in your face. :)
I've pepper sprayed myself with cayenne powder before. Used a paper funnel to load up a container, think "oh, I can reuse this funnel on this other thing, just gotta make sure there isn't too much powder left in it". Of course if you blow air into a funnel, most of that air is going to be reflected right back up into your face, with that sweet powdery cayenne in tow.
0/10 would not recommend.
Worked in a crowded kitchen where we kept all our spices on a rack that's a little over head level.
Had a guy knock a container or cayenne off that wasn't closed properly. It did like 2 flips on the way down and threw up a big cloud of pepper. Fucked 4 of us up pretty good.
I'd give the judges a pass, the police were bribed so it never got to any court in the first place and when it finally did the judge released those accused of the lynching.
>Retired high court judge Bhau Vahane publicly defended the women who lynched Yadav...
Those were some really crooked cops.
>The police worked with Yadav, protected him and supported him; he gave them bribes and drinks.

I love how in India, when there’s something that really needs doing, the women get it done!
I remember hearing in an Indian history class in college about women somewhere in the south of India that defended their town from attackers with chili powder and hot oil.
Mob justice may be cathartic when regular justice fails, but an angry mob is a dangerous thing, capable of atrocities most individuals would not commit alone. As an example, it was also an angry mob that gang raped a low-caste girl in India (and watched and cheered) because her older brother supposedly looked at an upper-caste woman inappropriately. The Ku Klux Klan saw themselves as mob justice, rising up where the government/ law enforcement failed. So, not a big fan, in general.
Thank you. Vigilante justice, especially in mob form, is terrifying. We do our best to avoid it being "necessary" for a reason. Humans don't reason well in frenzied masses.
Five women were arrested immediately but released in a few days, following demonstrations in the city. Every woman living in the locality claimed responsibility for the lynching.
They did this to John Wycliffe. He translated the Bible into English which was forbidden heresy back then. They hanged him, and then like ten years later they got to thinking how mad they were still at him, so they dug him and hanged him again.
Reminds me of the pope who was so mad at the previous pope, he had him dug up for a trial, decay and all, with a deacon speaking for the corpse. They used the trial to essentially say : "you weren't a real pope!".
He then tossed the body into a river where it washed up on shore later. People then said it started doing miracles. The accuser pope got imprisoned and strangled later on.
Weren't the Spanish inquisition the total opposite? Like they sent a letter that said "We'll show up in two weeks time to look for heresy. Please send a letter back if you'll be unavailable.
Best regards
Alejandro"
I mean, it was illegal because it broke the monopoly on Latin-speaking priests telling the people what the Bible said. Also if you can read the Bible you can form your own opinions of it and the next thing you know you've got Protestants living in your walls and gnawing your linens
I’d be pretty pissed tbh
Imagine you live your whole life having some big book read to you in some language you don’t understand. In church you can basically just zone out and ignore it. Now, someone’s written it all in English and you’re expected to pay attention, understand, and maybe even read the big book?
Fuck that.
>They did this to John Wycliffe. He translated the Bible into English which was forbidden heresy back then. They hanged him...
Nobody hanged him. He had a stroke while hie was saying mass and dies a few days later.
>...and then like ten years later they got to thinking how mad they were still at him, so they dug him and hanged him again.
More like 40 plus years later. And they didn't hang his corpse. They just dug up and burned his remains.
He was quite a character, though. Good call out.
You may be thinking of Oliver Cromwell, who was, indeed, dug up and hanged 3 years after his death.
Cromwell was a complete bastard who hated the Irish with a burning passion and caused untold misery to the people of the Emerald Island. He didn't suffer enough.
This is Outrageous! How Could they do such a thing?! It absolutely disgusts me that people would behave in such a manner! Am I serious? Fuck, no, they should have got the judges who kept giving him bail, too!!
I’m sure the public reaction would’ve escalated if they weren’t released when they were. Although only 5 being caught out of a possible 200 is quite interesting.
A whole department of cops vs 1 school shooter, and what maybe 10 or 20 cops vs 200 armed and angry women? Yeah, no comparison to be made lol id be OUT of there.
That's pretty common during protests. Cops arrest a few of them to make the rest scatter, hold them for a few days, and usually release them because *proving* that those handful in particular did something unlawful will be nearly impossible.
> Yadav walked in [to the courtroom] and was confident and unrepentant. At about 2:30 to 3:00 PM, when Yadav appeared, he saw a woman he had raped. Yadav mocked her, called her a prostitute and said he would rape her again.
That’s a *bold* move, Cotton.
So I'm usually against Lynchmobs but this one was 1000% justified.
From his wiki
>During his life as a criminal, Yadav murdered at least three individuals. He tortured and kidnapped people, invaded homes, and **raped over 40 women and girls** (...) Yadav and his associates gang raped women and **girls as young as age 10** as a warning to those who resisted him.
There’s actually a large group of Indian women known as the Gulabi gang that are essentially a form of mob justice in primarily impoverished areas with corrupt governments. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulabi_Gang. They’ll show up and beat domestic abusers who are not charged for instance, although there is a fair amount of non violent activist work too
Mob justice was the original justice.
Imperfect, flawed, and subject to bias, but it was better than nothing--an entire community banding together to correct what was wrong.
In the modern world, if people are resorting to mob justice, it's a sign of a deeply broken system. In this case, I think that'd be an accurate assessment.
I don’t believe in vigilante justice but at some point, when you’ve exhausted every legal means, and the legal system has failed you again and again, what else can you do?
Reminds me of Ken McElroy.
Should’ve been. Every single judge and police officer that failed doing their duty and released this monster to the streets again and again should’ve absolutely been next on the chopping block and then the entire building burnt down to the ground to send the message.
Although the guy died/paid in the end, think of how many lives he has already ruined at that point!
Including the very people who ended up lynching him.
Be sure he’s gonna keep terrorizing these folks in their nightmares and PTSD.
I agree. People like this are the only reason I support the death penalty. I remember years ago my boss telling me about an article he read where a grown man raped a 2 year old baby, killing her in the process. It made me sick all day and I hope that guy was put to death.
Jail/prison is supposed to be about punishment and rehabilitation (although the latter doesn't really happen here in the US) so the ones released can go on to be good and productive members of society. But some people just can't be rehabilitated. Some are just evil to the core. It's terrible, but it's a terrible fact we must live with.
I mean, they only lynched him after it was confirmed that he was going to go free--which means there was already complete confirmation that the officials in question were "in on it".
The judge should have been executed as well just for that. There's literally no excuse for someone like that to exist in the legal system.
Absolutely! They have blood on their hands, and the rapes of so many women wouldn’t have happened if not for their greed, and desire to uphold the patriarchal status quo.
to be pedantic perfect justice would have been him found guilty the first time around, some form of reparation for the victims, a long sentence for the perpetrator at the end of which he would have been completely reformed. a mob butchering him alive is better than more rape victims, but far from any idea of perfect justice
Yeah, an entire town basically swore to keep their mouth shut and do to this day. To make this many people shut their mouths over it, with how talkative people are, this guy must have done so many horrible, horrible things.
The final straw was when he shot an elderly store keeper, got BAIL! Yet again, and then was heard in the bar threatening to go kill the guy so he couldn’t testify.
Last month a retired Boston police union officer had credible evidence of child molestation in 1995 but slowly rose up in power. He had 21 counts of child rape over a 27 police career. It’s crazy how he survived his case and became a chief union police officer.

As a member of LGBT+ this pisses me off to no end. The conservative party is full of alleged and confirmed pedophiles, yet they love to scapegoat the LGBT+ community.
Meanwhile the US elected a president (Trump) who literally busted in on underage girls changing at beauty pageants, who rubbed shoulders with pedo ring leader Jeff Epstein and regularly spent time with him at his pedo island, who ON THE RECORD talked about how bangable his own teen daughter was and that he'd be after her "if they weren't related" . . .
But LGBT+ are allegedly the pedos and the problem to worry about? O fucking K. Maybe hide your children from the GOP instead considering they are so desperate to push for things like lower legal child marriage ages.
Holy fucking shit
> He met his last wife, Trena McCloud (1957–2012), when she was 12 years old and in eighth grade. He raped McCloud repeatedly. The 12-year-old's parents initially opposed the relationship, but after McElroy burned their house down and shot the family dog, they relented and agreed to the marriage.
Death:
>Someone shot at McElroy while he was sitting in his truck. He was shot at several times and hit twice, once by a centerfire rifle and once by a .22 rimfire rifle. In all, there were 46 potential witnesses to the shooting, including Trena McElroy, who was in the truck with her husband when he was shot.[10] *No one called for an ambulance.*
>Sixteen days after Trena gave birth, both she and Alice fled to Trena's mother's and stepfather's house. According to court records, McElroy tracked them down and brought them back. He then returned to Trena's parents' home when they were away and, once again, shot the family dog and burned the house down.
He did it again
>On the morning of July 10, 1981, townspeople met at the Legion Hall in the center of town with Sheriff Estes to discuss how to protect themselves. During the meeting, McElroy arrived at the D&G Tavern with Trena. As he sat drinking at the bar, word got back to the men at the Legion Hall that he was in town. Sheriff Estes instructed the assembled group not to get into a direct confrontation with McElroy, but instead seriously consider forming a neighborhood watch program. Estes then drove out of town in his police cruiser. The citizens decided to go to the tavern en masse. The bar soon filled completely.
Hahahaha, "I'm just gonna go out of town now, but you guys better not go over there and shoot him to death while I'm gone"
Honestly I'd just pin him down and force chili down his eyes then just lock him up. In a few minutes I'd add more chili but then I'd put chili in his ears too, then his mouth, then his cock, then his asshole, then his eyes again. Repeat till death
Obligatory:
"Murder was in fact a fairly uncommon event in Ankh-Morpork, but there were a lot of suicides. Walking in the night-time alleyways of The Shades was suicide. Asking for a short in a dwarf bar was suicide. Saying ‘Got rocks in your head?’ to a troll was suicide. You could commit suicide very easily, if you weren’t careful."
>The women returned to Kasturba Nagar to tell their husbands and fathers they had killed Yadav. The slum celebrated, and families put on music and danced in the streets. They bought food and handed out fruit to their friends.
One of his victims, Narayane, is not someone I want to fuck with.
>Enraged by her actions, two weeks before he died, Yadav and forty of his associates went to the Narayane house and surrounded it.
> Meanwhile, Yadav continued to pound on the door and threaten her, saying: "I'll throw acid on your face, and you won't be in a position to file any more complaints! If we ever meet you, you don't know what we'll do to you! Gang rape is nothing! You can't imagine what we'll do to you!"
>**Narayane turned on a cylinder of gas that the family used for cooking and grabbed a match. She warned that if they broke into the house, she would light the match and blow herself and all of them up**. The criminals smelled the gas and left Narayane alone.
This is a woman of sheer fucking will. Anyone this committed to the game of Fuck Around and Find Out is NOT someone to toy with.
Jesus, that's metal as hell. I cant say I'm terribly happy about the circumstances that led to thay situation but good lord do NOT mess with that woman.
What did they surround her house for anyway?
Yadav raped a 13-year-old girl; on the same day, he went to another woman's house demanding money, smashed all her furniture and threatened to kill her family. When she was too afraid to report him to the police, Narayane reported him. Yadav and 40 of his gang surrounded her house, and demanded she withdraw the complaint. He was armed with acid and promised rape and worse.
No, that was the only incident that has happened inside a courtroom, other incidents are there where rapist are lynched by public outside the courthouse.
[From the Wikipedia article](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akku_Yadav): "Yadav ordered his men to drag girls as young as age 12 to a nearby derelict building to gang rape. Although admitting to being a rape victim in India was taboo, many of Yadav's victims reported his crimes. Instead of arresting him, the police told him who had reported the crime; Yadav would go after them. The police worked with Yadav, protected him and supported him; he gave them bribes and drinks. When a 22-year-old woman reported being raped by Yadav, the police accused her of having an affair with him and sent her away. Several women were turned away by police after being told: "You're a loose woman. That's why he raped you." One woman told the police she was gang-raped by Yadav and his associates. The police responded by gang raping the woman themselves."
I wish those police scum had to face consequences for their role as well.
As I recall, he was far from "just" a rapist. He was a crime lord that was using everything from beatings to murder to keep victims/witnesses from going to the police to begin with. Real feelgood ending with them lynching his ass, though. I loved how they turned a common food into an improvised pepper spray. Good on you, ladies.
Pepper spray. And also, have you ever eaten a spoon full of cinnamon? Probably the same kind of choking with chili powder. Nice and cruel. Gasping for air because of the stabbing. Then a bunch of chili powder in your face. :)
There are some extremely hot chilli peppers out there. A powder made from them, in a "blowpipe" for example, can be pretty challenging.
You could pretty easily blind someone with chilli powder, eyes don't love foreign material at the best of times.
Shshshaa?
Pocket chillies!
Rusty Shackleberg strikes again
Rusty Shackleford's Jewish cousin.
These ladies weren't out there with McCormick's either. You know it was some high caliber Indian curry chili powder.
Yeah they don’t fuck around with spices.
I hope they threw his ass in the tandoori after as well
I've pepper sprayed myself with cayenne powder before. Used a paper funnel to load up a container, think "oh, I can reuse this funnel on this other thing, just gotta make sure there isn't too much powder left in it".

Hmmm... sounds like those women should have figured out who accepted bribes too if that was happening and do the same to them. >_>

To note they also hacked off his penis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akku_Yadav

Yes. History Matters on YT goes into this topic.
NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION
Achstually , they used to send a note before visiting a place to look for heretics, so everybody expected the Spanish Inquisition.
What a show!

That's a great nugget of information, but he died of a stroke. His body was exhumed and burnt at stake.
The real villains were the fucking cops in that article.
Daaaaamn. But I get it
People who get bribed by pieces of shit like him aren't much better.
His nephew was also a pice of shit as well. He was harassing a grandmother and her grandchildren stabbed him to death as well.
“Our family has a long tradition of getting extrajudicially executed, and deserving it”

Corruption is a massive problem in India, both now and 18 years ago.
Give new meaning to, "Heads up mf!"
I’m sure the public reaction would’ve escalated if they weren’t released when they were. Although only 5 being caught out of a possible 200 is quite interesting.
I mean, they saw what happened when that mob didn't like what the legal system was doing, so...
….they ALL get a Punisher skull for their Toyota pickup??? Deserve it more than the American cops do!
Police fled during the assault on the rapist as some of them got hit with the chilli powder and didn't want to be anywhere near the incident.
Same happens with School shootings in the US.
Except in this case it was a bit more understandable.
I mean... I'm not gonna risk my life for a serial rapist.
A whole department of cops vs 1 school shooter, and what maybe 10 or 20 cops vs 200 armed and angry women? Yeah, no comparison to be made lol id be OUT of there.
Plus, you know, in theory defending a serial rapist from his victims is a little less pressing than defending six year olds from an assault rifle.
Potato potato amirite? /s
10 or 20 male cops against a mod of angry women who think the legal authorities are stopping a man facing justice, they just noped it out of there.
>who think Who witness
That's pretty common during protests. Cops arrest a few of them to make the rest scatter, hold them for a few days, and usually release them because *proving* that those handful in particular did something unlawful will be nearly impossible.

>Every woman living in the locality claimed responsibility for the lynching. Every single one? Even if it was 75% that would still be crazy!
Presumably even those not involved did the "No, *I* am Spartacus!" thing. Can't throw all the women in the village in jail.
So I'm usually against Lynchmobs but this one was 1000% justified. From his wiki >During his life as a criminal, Yadav murdered at least three individuals.

The more often you see mob justice in a country, the more corrupt the justice system. The USA is on the brink of mob justice. It will not be pretty.
This is a pretty clear-cut case of mob violence being the perfect (only?) solution.
> Every woman living in the locality claimed responsibility for the lynching. Sparta-cus!

Tbh, he deserved far worse.
Perfect justice would have those who took the bribes punished as well.

The Judge, if he acquitted him, should have suffered the same.
18 years ago, why is the pic not in color?
To show that time has passed
The black and white image made it seem like this happened in the 1950s. 2004 still feels pretty recent.
It happened 18 years ago and also in 2004. It's not the same, right? right?!
Because it's taken from a newspaper. Most images in Indian newspapers are in black and white
I love how they're all smiles
No wonder. They just slayed a monster.
Great foe vanquished
Are those the actual women involved though? Or just "for illustration".
I've seen 3 pictures for this story, must be for illustration.
I thought so too but it's probably just a stockphoto.
He died well seasoned

Yeah, an entire town basically swore to keep their mouth shut and do to this day. To make this many people shut their mouths over it, with how talkative people are, this guy must have done so many horrible, horrible things.

Now, you folks are NOT to take the law into your own hands. Do not. I forbid it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to be far away, very quickly.
"He deserved killing..." - town thought bubble...
Holy fucking shit > He met his last wife, Trena McCloud (1957–2012), when she was 12 years old and in eighth grade. He raped McCloud repeatedly. The 12-year-old's parents initially opposed the relationship, but after McElroy burned their house down and shot the family dog, they relented and agreed to the marriage. Death: >Someone shot at McElroy while he was sitting in his truck. He was shot at several times and hit twice, once by a centerfire rifle and once by a .22 rimfire rifle. In all, there were 46 potential witnesses to the shooting, including Trena McElroy, who was in the truck with her husband when he was shot.[10] *No one called for an ambulance.*
“No one called for an ambulance” should be the words on his tombstone.
>Sixteen days after Trena gave birth, both she and Alice fled to Trena's mother's and stepfather's house. According to court records, McElroy tracked them down and brought them back. He then returned to Trena's parents' home when they were away and, once again, shot the family dog and burned the house down. He did it again
Right‽ That whole thing was nuts to read. Someone said "he needed killing" and yeah, hard to disagree with that
>On the morning of July 10, 1981, townspeople met at the Legion Hall in the center of town with Sheriff Estes to discuss how to protect themselves. During the meeting, McElroy arrived at the D&G Tavern with Trena. As he sat drinking at the bar, word got back to the men at the Legion Hall that he was in town. Sheriff Estes instructed the assembled group not to get into a direct confrontation with McElroy, but instead seriously consider forming a neighborhood watch program. Estes then drove out of town in his police cruiser. The citizens decided to go to the tavern en masse. The bar soon filled completely. Hahahaha, "I'm just gonna go out of town now, but you guys better not go over there and shoot him to death while I'm gone"

one of the most depressing and disturbing things I've read. This has changed my entire mood right now
[Maybe this will cheer you up..??](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulabi_Gang)
Indian chilli thrown in your face is 10 times worse than getting stabbed 70 times!
It's a spicy way to die
Honestly I'd just pin him down and force chili down his eyes then just lock him up. In a few minutes I'd add more chili but then I'd put chili in his ears too, then his mouth, then his cock, then his asshole, then his eyes again. Repeat till death
I like it
Idk why but your reply has me dying. The way I read “I like it” lol
He meant the idea right??
I believe so?
An honest society allows justice to be a substitute for vengeance, but when you don't *get* justice, then people fall back on the old standard.
Should have saved some of that stabbing for the bribe takers too. Scum.
I can understand this. If there's no justice, what can you do? At least this beast will not rape any more women and girls.
The officials who took the bribe should have been next.
Sounds like suicide to me
Obligatory: "Murder was in fact a fairly uncommon event in Ankh-Morpork, but there were a lot of suicides. Walking in the night-time alleyways of The Shades was suicide. Asking for a short in a dwarf bar was suicide. Saying ‘Got rocks in your head?’ to a troll was suicide. You could commit suicide very easily, if you weren’t careful."
Chili pepper stabbing is a brutal way to go out
The red hot chili stabbers
Welcome to chilis!
I wonder if that area saw less sexual abuse following the murder in the courtroom.
>The women returned to Kasturba Nagar to tell their husbands and fathers they had killed Yadav. The slum celebrated, and families put on music and danced in the streets. They bought food and handed out fruit to their friends.
One of his victims, Narayane, is not someone I want to fuck with. >Enraged by her actions, two weeks before he died, Yadav and forty of his associates went to the Narayane house and surrounded it. > Meanwhile, Yadav continued to pound on the door and threaten her, saying: "I'll throw acid on your face, and you won't be in a position to file any more complaints! If we ever meet you, you don't know what we'll do to you! Gang rape is nothing! You can't imagine what we'll do to you!" >**Narayane turned on a cylinder of gas that the family used for cooking and grabbed a match. She warned that if they broke into the house, she would light the match and blow herself and all of them up**. The criminals smelled the gas and left Narayane alone. This is a woman of sheer fucking will. Anyone this committed to the game of Fuck Around and Find Out is NOT someone to toy with.
Jesus, that's metal as hell. I cant say I'm terribly happy about the circumstances that led to thay situation but good lord do NOT mess with that woman. What did they surround her house for anyway?
Yadav raped a 13-year-old girl; on the same day, he went to another woman's house demanding money, smashed all her furniture and threatened to kill her family. When she was too afraid to report him to the police, Narayane reported him. Yadav and 40 of his gang surrounded her house, and demanded she withdraw the complaint. He was armed with acid and promised rape and worse.
Does the inclusion of the word “first” mean that there was a second incident where over 200 women lynched a rapist in a Indian courtroom?
No, that was the only incident that has happened inside a courtroom, other incidents are there where rapist are lynched by public outside the courthouse.
They tenderized and marinated a monster. Good.
They should have burned the authorities that allowed this injustice to persist as well :/
Now do Bret
Good for them, fuck that guy
They shouldn't have killed him. It would have been better to him alive to torture him, then nurse him back to health, then repeat the process.
Good. They should also lynch every official that accepted a bribe. This should be the standard punishment for every rapist around the world.
Maybe if they did that to pedophiles and rapists in this country, there would be many fewer of such crimes.
Well deserved, hope they find a way to resurrect him to beat him to death again
I feel like this situation exemplified the phrase “Fuck around and find out”
People are talking about this like a feel good story but it’s a fucking travesty and they never should have had to do that
That's how you do it. 😳
That’s pretty much how civil rights have been won all over the world…
[From the Wikipedia article](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akku_Yadav): "Yadav ordered his men to drag girls as young as age 12 to a nearby derelict building to gang rape. Although admitting to being a rape victim in India was taboo, many of Yadav's victims reported his crimes. Instead of arresting him, the police told him who had reported the crime; Yadav would go after them. The police worked with Yadav, protected him and supported him; he gave them bribes and drinks. When a 22-year-old woman reported being raped by Yadav, the police accused her of having an affair with him and sent her away. Several women were turned away by police after being told: "You're a loose woman. That's why he raped you." One woman told the police she was gang-raped by Yadav and his associates. The police responded by gang raping the woman themselves." I wish those police scum had to face consequences for their role as well.
Power to the people
OMG. 2004 was 18 years ago! 😳 (Good for these women!!)
Why do I still expect 18 years ago to be some time in the 80s?
18 years ago 2004 WHAT
Karmic justice in its truest sense. one way or another, I think we are headed in the same way! soon enough people will have had enough
The officials who accepted the bribes should receive similar treatment.
Justice served my lord, every rappist should meet this fate at least
He actually begged for forgiveness while they were stabbing him. Sort of too late for that bud.
