Bill Callaham, a California lawyer, never had a chance to hand over his Rolex, cell phone or hundreds of dollars in cash. The men who attacked him from behind in the Central Business District never made any demands. They beat him unconscious, breaking his nose and his jaw. And afterward, he said, they took nothing.
"If somebody had confronted me and asked for money, I would've happily given them my money," Callaham said Friday, a week after the assault. "I don't know if it was random, I mean, I have no idea. I just think it's a sad state of society right now."

Pics of his injuries at source.
Annoyed anyone lately? Loose a case? Sued someone for something stupid?
I bet he had the , Beat me unconscious sign on his back
“They were all wearing leather jackets that said ‘Lawyer Stompers’ on the back. I wonder why they targeted me? Is it a race thing?”
I’m sitting here wondering if he’s ever bargained out a sentence to get some cretin thugs like this off of a well-deserved reward.
He’s perplexed that he was the Polar Bear, the Knock Out Contestant, the payback for Ferguson?
So a lawyer gets attacked just for being a lawyer? Who would of thought?
Where can I find this guy? I need to ask him a question.
Just a wild guess that it had something to do with his too light complexion . . .
Was he strutting his white privilege?
“”If somebody had confronted me and asked for money, I would’ve happily given them my money,” “
Happily”!!??
What a coward.
He just needed his @ beat, I guess? Some lawyers are like that.
He sounds like a clueless liberal. He touches on a liberal idea that peoeole get robbed and attacked because the criminals are feeling victimized and are grappling with poverty. Liberals can’t get their arms around these knockout games. They can’t understand someone committing crimes for no reason. To liberals there must be some underlying reason such as poverty to explain crime.
Punishment for the impertinence of using the wrong letter at the end of his name. This ba$tard has been screwing up things starting with hospital birth records, then school attendance lists, has made life a living Hell for the post office, and will be the bane of Google obituary searches through time. And besides, he’s white.
Siphoned off any money from a trust fund? Slept with anybodies wife lately? The possibilities are myriad, including: Are you a lawyer? Obviously nobody was trying to rob the guy, as they were perfectly satisfied with bitch-stomping him. My money is on he pissd off somebody.

Perhaps the plan was to beat him unconscious then rob him. They may have gotten interrupted mid-plan or simply spooked by something and left him.
