Man stabbed to death near East Dulwich station

[Keef]

race is an irrelevance to this it's just part of inner city/tougher suburb life and nowadays inner city youths in london are more likely to be black/mixed race.

Glasgow got plenty of white boys stabbing innit

That is the point I was trying to make, but I think you've put it better.

Yet another poster who realises that Penguin68 recycles daily mail / book read rot - without the intelligence of their own formed opinion.

I would dearly love to meet he/she to discuss some of the posts which I now watch closely!

BBC News - Teenager charged over London bus murder

[James Barber]

South London Press report today that a 16 year old Peckham boy has been charged with this murder. He can't be named for legal reasons and was due to appear at Croydon Youth Court yesterday.

Five other males aged 13,15,18,20 and 23 have been arrested and given bail in connection with this murder.

This case has now gone to trial!

Thank goodness, perhaps the Court can come here for the analysis of norms of youth behaviour prior to any sentencing.

Guilty verdict and Life Imprisonment! GMG Gang? WABOFC!

[citizenED]

I saw that too Ratty. Such an awful event. Rest in Peace, Daniel.

Despite the fact we hear about stabbings far too often, this murder genuinely upset me. As his mother said, he died alone, and must have been so scared.

Glad to hear his family have gotten some justice, but it changes nothing.

RIP indeed.

[maxxi]

Agree but 'life imprisonment' my arse. The two youngest killers will be walking the streets again in their early 30s. Some justice.
