That's the thing though.

Everyone and his dog knows who did it. The police know. The community knows. His name is everywhere. But the only people who know enough to actually prove it, or at least point in the direction of where the weapon is hidden, are not going to be Mr or Mrs Joe Bloggs from Acacia Avenue. Those who know enough to nail him know because of their own associations.

You’d assume (hope?) they must have a pretty watertight case to name and charge him wouldn’t you?

You'd think so. They've known who did it from very early on. I think it was just a case of getting the evidence to make it stick before finally charging him.

Think they are going to struggle translating those charges to guilty verdicts in court.

Murder is a deliberate act and they will need to prove beyond reasonable doubt that he deliberately meant to kill her as well as attempting to kill the others.

He'll plead to attempted murder of the guy he shot, wounding the mum and manslaughter of the girl.

Can't they argue that running into a house with a gun and firing it is an intent to kill?

It is a bit like those school shootings in the USA, you would struggle to prove they intended to kill the actual people they did but nevertheless they were intent on killing and behaved in such a way that removes all doubt about that.

randomly firing bullets into a house is 100% murder, what the fuck did he expect to happen? Not a chance, if the police have done their homework will he get away with manslaughter.


They'll probably struggle to find a jury prepared to give the c*nt a fair trial though

They don't have the murder weapons yet, so on that point you wonder what evidence they do have to actually charge him. I always thought it was much tougher to get a conviction without the actual weapon being found?

Nah fortunately I would say you're not right there  Murder is when someone dies as a result of intent to kill or do serious bodily harm. It's still murder if bullets hit an unintended target. See Rhys Jones.

There was even some lads in London recently who got convicted of murder while not even firing any of the killing shots  The victim was their own mate and they were convicted of murder after starting a gunfight with a rival gang and he got shot back while with them. Just starting it was enough to convict them. Not the same at all obviously but just an indicator of how firing shots and someone dies will put you away for a long time

He can plead to whatever he wants, in a case like this he's heading for a 30+ year sentence minimum..

He went in there with two handguns with the express intention to murder. He hit three people in the process, one died. I just can't see how he gets off on manslaughter for that.

He set out to murder. He succeeded.

Same as Sean Mercer killing Rhys Jones. He intended to kill someone, even if he didn't get the person he was after.

Oh for sure, but I just was speaking more generally. With my very amateur knowledge from bits of reading and documentaries etc, I just thought a murder conviction was always difficult to get if you didn't have the weapon used. So if they don't have the guns used, what exactly do they have that is significant enough to charge him?

Yeah, that's what I mean. They don't have the weapons, so they have something else significant enough to charge him. There must be a reasonable prospect of a conviction I think they call it?

Photos now. One in a super car showroom and one in Matou. Doesn’t look like the usual little scally, rat running the streets. Maybe he was a higher level, but wouldn’t have thought they would be “hands on”?

I said earlier in the thread before he was caught and named publicly, he's not a low level, North Face wearing, electric bike riding scally. He's higher up the chain and a well known, well connected criminal.

Those pictures of him with the supercars etc were out online weeks ago, as was his name and the fact it was him who killed Olivia.

The surprise is, as you said, that he went hands on rather than getting a local scrote to do it. Theories I've heard are that this hit was personal, and another simply being that he enjoys murder and this is not his only high profile hit. All allegedly, of course.

The last bit has been rumoured for a while now, along with allegedly Nee has finally cracked on Thursday and implicated him.
