As enticing as a hot young babe might be to a 57 year old  , (or a 48 year old  ) I'd be damned sure of her age if there was any doubt.
At any age, self preservation from the law and fathers everywhere should always be a priority....jd |
Looking at the entire story would determine the appropriate level of punishment. Not that it's "right" for them to be together, it might have been legal and consensual. I'm not sure of the local laws on that. That being said, I would not want to be in the father's shoes, especially if something hokey was going on and authorities refused to do anything. 
Regardless of the circumstances, while vigilantism might not be right ... I understand where the father is coming from.
