Based on the reports about it, the correct choice.
Glad he was released, although I suspect he’ll have to spend a long time dealing with the trauma of what he saw.
Sounds like a solid result – just a shame the lady didn’t make it
Thank God for that! He and the others who tried to stop the stabbing are all real heroes. I’m not sure I would feel any guilt over killing the stagger instead of giving him a chance to go to court and possibly being deemed mentally unstable or some other crap with a light sentence.
It sounds like the car was stopped with the attacker underneath. That’s certainly an effect restraint.
If only the woman survived. I suspect he’d be kinder on himself than he may otherwise be.
I mean I’m weary of the dangers of encouraging this. I have nothing but respect for people who try to stop these attacks, but the sad reality is nine times out of ten it just ends with two stabbing victims instead of one.
Having said that I think they have undeniably made the right choice. I would wish it had come sooner, but its probably best to do this through the right channels.
I don’t condone vigilantism but this seems like the right decision by the police, all things considered.
As expected, and based on reports probably the correct answer.
Thank god. Took a while though. They managed to arrest him quickly enough but obviously did little to stop the actual criminal who went on to kill this poor lady. RIP.
Met police not taking crimes against women seriously AGAIN!
The guy breached a stalking order then didn’t turn up to a court hearing, it should have been plainly obvious he was going to do something to her and they left him on the run for 3 weeks! Shocking.
