I found this scene entirely unrealistic, one of the many problems with the book. I don't think there's plausible explanation for what is clearly just a plot device. The author wants to put Toby into morally complex circumstances and this is how she did it.

The reaction of Rafferty after Toby hit him was overdone. How many other times did a Detective get a retaliatory punch? They’ve been taught and trained for a measured response.
