A devastated mom was handed a jail sentence after she burnt her daughter's rapist alive following his release from prison. Spanish woman María del Carmen García's daughter Verónica was just 13 years old when she was raped at knifepoint by her neighbor Antonio Cosme in 1998. The rapist was sentenced to nine years in prison for the crime but in June 2005 he was on day release when he approached María at a bus stop near her home outside of Alicante.
