Penguin68 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I don't understand this statement, what help does someone who's prepared to go out and stab someone need?Although this seems to be part of a series of criminal offences, and hence probably not relevant, random violence I'm afraid can be symptomatic of those suffering some mental health disorders (although self-harm is tragically far more common). This can be particularly so with people suffering paranoid delusions (sometimes chemically induced or exacerbated).In these cases 'help' is far more appropriate than punishment.

seenbeen Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 It seems SE22 is up there in the violent crime statshttps://www.ukcrimestats.com/Postcode_Districts/SE22/First I'd heard of this that happened last year- not far from me. It would be useful to be warned of these crimes in the area for those who do not read the Southwark news.https://www.southwarknews.co.uk/news/couple-held-at-knife-point-by-masked-burglars-in-east-dulwich-home/ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/235606-police-cordon-gowlett-road/page/2/#findComment-1365958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I suggest that people get an understanding of crime in the area by turning up at their ward Police Safer Neighbourhood Team meetings. It would appear that many of these meetings have low attendance rates and I gather there is concerns as to why poorly attended - is it the venue or the times of the meetings, or apathy ?. Just go to the Met Police SNT page to find out more about your ward's meeting dates and Police Officers.

For a while, Herne Hill had the highest rate of burglary in the U.K. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/235606-police-cordon-gowlett-road/page/2/#findComment-1365977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
alice Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Pugwash you try so hard to get people involved, unfortunately there?s so many experts like the poster above who base comments on opinions rather than facts.

Humdinger Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Tremendous that the alleged perpetrators were caught and now charged. Note they both came from nearby areas of deprivation, to alledgedly violently mug someone in East Dulwich.

ianr Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 @Humdinger, they are alleged perpetrators. In acting as if you have personal knowledge of them and their activities, you can make yourself potentially liable to prosecution under the Contempt of Court Act: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1981/49/crossheading/strict-liability. Follow the newspaper's example. They're professionals who know what they're doing, and act with integrity.

James Barber Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I hope the victim makes a full recovery. This violence is unusual, especially in our area.Police stats for Good Green ward where this happened can be found here - https://www.met.police.uk/sd/stats-and-data/met/crime-data-dashboard/ also see attached.In summary 144 reported crimes per thousand population. Goose Green ward has the 4th lowest reported crime rate in Southwark out of 23 wards for the period August 2019 to July 2019.
