Boxing grandpa hits back at thief

Grandpa hits back at thief
Former boxer in Army
'Got what he deserved,' says judge
A WOULD-BE thief made the worst mistake of his career after breaking into the house of a retired Army boxer. Gregory McCalium, 23, fronted court yesterday with a black eye and a fat lip after he was busted - and subsequently bashed - by 71-year-old Frank Corti in Mr Corti’s house in Oxford, UK. 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.
He said McCalium “took a slash” at him, but Mr Corti ducked and threw two big right hooks at the lout.
And Mr Corti knows how to throw a right hook – he was famous for it as a featherweight in the Royal Engineers.
The blows almost knocked McCalium out, allowing Mr Corti to perform a citizens’ arrest and wait for the police. McCalium’s lawyer told the court his client “looked like a car accident”.
Grow a brain Ali comment 313. He never king hit the bloke. The bloke came at him with a knife. To king hit someone is to attack them without warning.
DennisN of Toowoomba “Photos of the scene looked more like a murder scene,” he told the court. The judge wasn’t moved, saying McCalium “got what he deserved” before sentencing him to four-and-a-half years’ jail.


Comentários: além de apanhar, o ladrão foi condenado a quatro anos de prisão. Enquanto isso, no Brasil, temos que entender as razões sociais que levaram a vítima, digo o criminoso, ao delito. Quanto à vítima propriamente, ela é a culpada do delito, afinal não tem "consciência social".
