Suck shit to this scumbag.  His name is Gregory McCalium.

His mistake.  Apart from being a thieving, almost certainly drug fucked loser?

He broke into the house of 71 year old Frank Corti, in Oxford, in the UK, armed with a knife.  Mr Corti said he was woken in the middle of the night by noises in his house and was confronted by the knife-wielding McCalium when he went to investigate. McCalium took a swipe at him with his knife, but Mr Corti ducked and threw two big right hooks at him, almost knocking him out.  Mr Corti was then able to make a citizen’s arrest on him, and hand him over to the police.

McCalium’s lawyer told the court his client “looked like a car accident”.  He didn’t get any sympathy from the judge, who sentenced him to 4 1/2 years jail.

His big mistake?  Not knowing his victim was a former boxer in the British army.

    I loved reading this story the other day and great that you highlighted it, it IS a great victory for the many victims of crime.

    You know what totally pisses me off is when you hear of situations like this, when we defend our property and/or lives and then these lowlifes try and sue!!! Kudos to the judge in this case!

    My dad is a former stick fighting champion (popular sport on the Caribbean island where we were born) and still has faster reflexes than most people I know. He also keeps a machete next to his bed. He’s 73 years old and I still ‘pity the fool’ who ever tries to rob or attack my parents in the middle of the night. It is entirely possible they will lose a limb.

    That’s the end of the road of stupid guy who confronted with a 71 year old unarmed old man but armed with killing right hooks. That’s KO.
