A paedo hunter is on trial over a 'Wild West-style arrest' of a child sex offender

A SELF-STYLED paedophile hunter is on trial over a "Wild West-style arrest" of a child sex offender "he punched and placed in a headlock".

Bournemouth Crown Court heard Brannigan and an unnamed colleague lay in wait for the 49-year-old to return home before forcing their way into his car. People can't put themselves above the law and become vigilantes. We have police officers for a reason - this is not the Wild West.Robert Bryan, prosecuting, said despite the "unpalatable" nature of the offence committed by Vaughan, the CPS had to bring charges of false imprisonment against "vigilante" Brannigan."As you can imagine this is heavily regulated by the law and you cannot use excessive force when making an arrest.

Giving evidence from behind a screen, Vaughan told the jury: "The two men got into my car and got hold of me."Mr Brannigan had me in a headlock and I panicked.
