The kick did not piss you off.
It certainly did. That's what "questionable" means here. It means that before applying the legal precedent of "innocence until proven guilty" and "benefit of a reasonable doubt", my immediate, snap judgment was to be pissed off at the kick. Only after closely considering the circumstances of the kick did I arrive at the conclusion of "questionable". I, personally, don't think the kick was necessary at that moment. But, in this context, I can't definitively conclude that. I provided a hypothetical mindset where his actions would be reasonable. If those circumstances were present in his trial, I would have to afford him reasonable doubt and acquit.
On the other hand, if she's the one on trial, I would have to afford her reasonable doubt, and conclude that the kick was unjustified. I don't think that kick would significantly affect the outcome of her trial, but I would consider it in her favor regardless.
