      He’s going to have to convince the jury this was reasonable force, which is not inconceivable when up 6 masked men were beating him up, and at least one of them with a crowbar.

      Quite a few of these cases haven’t went well in the UK for the homeowner but looks like this one was straightforward as he stabbed the man while he was still under attack.

      Well done to him. Must be terrifying having 6 men break into your home with your family there. 6 Less cretins for the rest of us to worry about.

      people have a right to defend their property and themselves from low life trash that think its ok to invade your home

      “The homeowner did not face any criminal charges in connection to the man’s death as he was defending himself and his family, YorkshireLive reported.”

      Looks like the right outcome was reached, the rest of the gang was jailed (eventually) and the victim didn’t get charged with anything.

      >the offenders will now all be spending a considerable amount of time in their cells reflecting on their poor decision-making that night.

      Sure.

      stupid games, stupid prizes

      I can imagine his relief when the other 5 thugs fled.

      Still shit that he now has to live with the memory of killing someone.

      Just a brave British dad protecting his kids with the Rambo knife he keeps in his bedroom. Shame his bags of drugs and weighing scales still got stolen though.

      “The victim then managed to grab a Rambo-style knife from his bedroom. When a man referred to as “Male 1” got on top of him, the victim threw him off and lunged at him with the blade about three times.”

      “Mr Petterson said the raiders intended to, and did, steal drugs from the victim’s home.

      “He said that police didn’t find any cocaine at the victim’s address but did later find a camouflage bag full of drugs and paraphernalia under a trampoline at an address in Selby linked to one of the burglars.

      “The bag contained cocaine and cannabis inside a fish-food box, plastic grip-seal bags and a set of weighing scales. The prosecution said the drugs were taken from the victim’s home.”

      Life for a life, shouldn’t matter what’s happened preciously. Country is a joke and we need to be stricter. Just goes to show you can go round stabbing people with no repercussions. And he stabbed him in front of his kids so they seen it all. Wonder what goes on behind closed doors

      This was most likely gang related, a punishment beating or they knew he had a stash of cash or drugs. Why else would six guys break into a bog standard council flat armed to the teeth?
