  • So I just beat the crap out of my first mugger

    I was walking back from a friend's house tonight...he just graduated and he had us over for one last drunken stand. His apartment isn't far from mine.

    Unfortunately, walking back I have to walk through a whole lot of people that include *******s, preps, and muggers.

    A mugger came up to me tonight and said "give me what you have in my wallet"...I showed him my wallet and it had nothing it in (I'm a poor college student)...

    He said "well, give me your jacket then"...I was drunk enough to say "**** you" and he tried to take it by force.

    I know Ky-yu-kedo (a combination of a few marial arts that I learned in my time in Wisconsin) and he wasn't able to take anything from me.

    The problem is...I took his knife and stabbed him a few times.

    My question: will this come back to haunt me, or will this guy just take it like a man and not come back?

    I'm slightly afraid because he assaulted me in front of my apartment, so he knows where I live, but it will take a hell of a lot of effort to get in, plus, if he goes to the 5-0, he won't get anyting but legal trouble.

    I'm slightly worried that his offense will turn into my offense.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Why didn't you call the cops?

      Exactly, call the cops and cover your butt. If you happened to stab this guy in a critical spot you could be in trouble.

      ACK!

        I'm moving..but not until Jun 30th...I can't afford to move any sooner than that.

        I called the cops, and they're sending a patrolman out, but unless the person is around my house, they can't do a whole lot.

          Doesn't help that you were (are) drunk. If the thing does go to court, you'll have to fight that fact with the jury.

          If things do go to court, you can always say you were acting in self defense...but the stabbing is kind of difficult to say.

          Also depends on which state you're in. Sorry I can't be more help but I don't know enough of the situation to give better insight on the matter...

            Well, find someone to stay with then for the next month and a half. If the dude is in a gang, you are ****ed.

              Why did you stab him!? And where did you stab him!? You should be advised that stabbing someone with a knife is considered lethal force. You can't prove he was trying to mug you, so I wouldn't discount legal trouble. And even still, can you prove that you were under attack from the man?

              Physical retribution is also a possibility, he may come looking for you again outside your apartment.

              Also, did you know he had a knife on hand when he tried to mug you? If so, you were lucky this time, but don't try to fight a man with a knife. If you don't win the fight, if he is a good enough with a knife, then your life is forfeit.

                Forget your combat training, don't mention it. You are scared, you were fighting for your life. Still jittery...he came at you and attacked you. Never forget you are the victim.

                    Even if he isn't in a gang, he might have friends or relatives that will want to come **** with you.

                    I'm serious, find someplace else to stay.

                      I hit him in the side...twice...

                      But it was with his own ****ing knife

                      The cops came, and then they left...they said I should keep all my doors locked and windows shut.

                      I gave them the knife (I still ****ing had it), and they're taking fingerprints...

                      I'll probably need to testify once they find the perp...but until then, I have my kitchen knife under my pillow. Other than that, I have no where in Boston to go, and I can't go to my parent's until next monday.

                      The perp who attacked me didn't seem like the "gang" type...he seemed more like a homeless guy in need of crack or something

                      Buggered if I'd give him my jacket though...

                            Then change your name and ask MtG for some advice about Mexico.
