When his kid told him that a creep had groped him and made him feel uncomfortable, one father in Oklahoma decided it was time to take retribution and justice into his own hands.
Michael Coghill, a 33-year-old former minister, was stopped at a bus stop with a 9-year-old boy and rubbed his fingers down the child’s back in a blood-curdling manner that made the child extremely uncomfortable.
Coghill had been jogging through the area on several occasions, according to the victim, and he had stopped at the bus stop on several occasions.
On Monday, September 20, the nine-year-old informed police that Coghill had approached him at the bus stop and had touched him on the back that day. According to police reports, the nine-year-old was offended by Coghill’s behavior.
Rather than keeping the incident to himself, the young boy went home and told his father about it, who was not pleased and wanted to make sure it didn’t happen again. As a result, the following time he dropped his little son off at the bus stop, he pulled over and waited to see what would happen.
Then he saw it: Coghill approached the bus stop and approached the 9-year-old, inappropriately touching him.
Coghill placed his hand on the child’s side at first, then slid his hand to the nine-year-old’s backside, according to the witness.
The man who shattered Coghill’s skull and cracked an orbital socket on the left side of his face left Coghill’s face black and blue.
Following the encounter, the perp was hauled into the station and booked.
