There are, but the law dislikes the competition and few militaries are willing to try against those in the USA. People are murdered for ill deeds (both bombed and shot on the street), and kidnapped by gangs or "special forces".

The two people i can think of to have done that in living memory were christopher dorner and whoever luigi mangione took the fall for.

There are more, but we run into issues with sorting motivations and which victims we mean to include. Periodically a rapist or murderer will be killed by the family of the victim when the perpetrator is felt to get a disproportionate punishment. Widening the geographic scope, I understand Uday and Qusay Hussein were killed in a shootout with the USA military. As previously stated, whom to include is a difficult decision.
