How did he not go to prison?!?!

Self defense is one hit, as I recall. I was watching the Home Alone films the other day, to get in the Christmas mood...Kevin McCallister should be put away!

Injuries...

Home Alone 1

Harry:
-Severe burns to right hand
-Severe burn to top of head
-Brain damage induced by paint can to the head and shovel to back of skull
-Rope burns
-Damaged ribs – hitting a brick wall

Marv:
-Broken nose from Iron falling on face
-Damage to foot tissue from 3 inch nail
-Infection in foot from tar in wound
-More damage to feet caused by glass baubles
-Brain damage induced by paint can to the head and shovel to back of skull
-Cracked skull – from above
-Rope burns
-Damaged ribs – hitting a brick wall

Home Alone 2

Harry:
-Spinal damage caused by hard fall onto concrete
-Brain damage by falling metal tools
-Severe burns to top of head by flame thrower
-Severe burns to entire body by petrol related explosion at immediate proximity to face
-Broken nose/ brain damage/ fractured skull – large metal poll hitting face at high speed
-Soft tissue damage from hard fall through hole in floor – 15 ft
-Broken nose – Door being slammed into face
-Severe burns to legs and hands from hanging on flaming rope
-Rope burns from falling from said rope
-More damage to spine and tissue from 30 ft fall from said rope
-Infection in wounds from varnish
-More damage to tissue from varnish cans falling from great height

Marv:
-Almost fatal, irreparable damage to skull and brain – four bricks being thrown from great height onto cranium
-Severe damage to spinal column caused by industrial staples being fired into it
-Broken rips – falling 15ft onto concrete floor
-More brain damage – heavy sack of plaster falling from 10 ft directly onto face
-More broken ribs and tissue damage – shelves and paint tins falling on to entire body
-Severe burns, near heart failure, brain damage, [should be death] after prolonged contact with maliciously increased electrically charged metal taps
-Broken nose/ brain damage/ fractured skull – large metal poll hitting face at high speed
-Soft tissue damage from hard fall through hole in floor – 15 ft
-Broken nose – Door being slammed into face
-Severe burns to legs and hands from hanging on flaming rope
-Rope burns from falling from said rope
-More damage to spine and tissue from 30 ft fall from said rope
-Infection in wounds from varnish
-More damage to tissue from varnish cans falling from great height


Kevin McCallister in Both films
Slight bruising from falling over repeatedly


I'm certain I've missed some, and the terminology is certainly incorrect, but does that matter? No! What matters is that the boy is a sadist, and possibly one of the cruelest and most cunning film villains to ever escape prison. Anybody else notice how evil that child was?

He probably would have went to prison if the crooks were deterred by his attacks and left but as they continued to pursue him he was within his legal rights to continue his assault.

Most of them were self defense, but what about the attack on Marv at the sink. He was simply trying to wash paint off his face so the boy electrocuted him. And it wasn't just to stun him, he increased it massively to lethal proportions.

If it was the UK then he'd be jailed for sure - They don't like ppl defending their homes there.
