And the Darwin Award Goes To.... Detroit Rapper Young Calicoe posts video boasting of animal fighting, gets raided by police

Young and Not-so-Bright Calicoe

July 12, 2012- Meet Detroit rapper and wanna-be tough guy "Young Calicoe". In a desperate bid for attention, this little known hack posted a "boast video" online showing off his collection of fighting animals. "Anybody wanna fight some dogs?" he asks as he gives a tour of his Pit Bulls and roosters, who he describes as "fighters" and "upcoming champions". 

Fortunately, Young Calicoe's plan worked and his video went viral. Luckily for his animals, some of those video's viewers turned out to be members of Law Enforcement. Young Calicoe's property was raided on July 11 2012 by Detroit Police and cruelty investigators from Michigan Humane Society. A number of animals were removed and are currently being held at the MHS shelter while prosecutors decide how to proceed against Young Calicoe.
