Horrible case, a 19 year old kid with paranoid schizophrenia lost it in the center of London and stabbed a load of people, including an American tourist who died.
One positive thing though is that it reminds me why our justice system is still a great thing. The kid was tased not shot, was properly diagnosed by medical professionals, and the prosecutors accepted it was a case of diminished responsibility and didn't try and push through a murder charge. This kind of responsible policing and sentencing continues to give me hope for my country.
