Father confronts thief and gets stabbed in the eye. Father then knifes the thief to death
Dad gets 6 years jail for self defense. With the court saying he should have called the police instead of confronting the thief with a long history of violent crimes
That is pretty much what I read, too. Dad should have been awarded a medal, not sent to prison.
This happened in England. The father should have yelled “Allahu Akbar!” as he stabbed the thief and he would have walked free.
