South Africans Raise Funds for Woman Who Stabbed Daughter’s Rapist to Death
More than $4, 200, for legal and counseling fees, has been raised for #LionMama.
A woman in South Africa was charged for stabbing a man to death and injuring two others. This was after she caught the three men raping her 27-year-old daughter, News24 reports.
The Eastern Cape woman, who has been christened as #LionMama on Twitter, was arrested earlier this month and released on a R500 bail.
More than $4, 200, for legal and counseling fees, has been raised for #LionMama in a fund raising campaign that was started by Natalie Kendrick.
Attoney Buhle Tonisa also offered her services for free to represent the woman.
Minister @MbalulaFikile please make sure #lionmama and woman who alerted her to daughter’s rape is protected. They’re being threatened.

I don't think I want to live in a world where you get prosecuted for protecting your loved ones #lionmama
