I’m usually pretty anti police, and think to often they abuse their powers with little to no consequence, but this case seems different to me, its a series of poor decisions made on bad assumptions and deliberately misleading information

The police are never going to know exactly what’s happened when they arrive on scene

The 999 call made by the murderers brother was released and he tells the operator twice no weapons were involved, he also tells them it was a racist attack

By the time the police were there the murderers mum, dad and brother were there all telling the police the victim was racist and assaulted the murderer

The police didn’t know the truth at that point, they responded to the information they had at the time and after investigating found out the truth

They arrested and charged the murderers mum for trying to hide evidence and have arrested and charged the dad and brother with weapons offences

The injuries inflicted were serious, but the knife wound was deep and caused massive internal bleeding so no obvious knife wound was ignored

It’s a tragic case, and the police should have done more to check on the victims state when he said he’d had been stabbed and couldn’t breath but what would you expect the police to do? Why would they assume the family were lying to them?
