Three women – aged 25, 28 and 61 – are understood to be Carol Hunt and two of her daughters, family of BBC racing commentator John Hunt.
.....under government guidance anyone who carries a crossbow in public without “reasonable excuse” faces up to four years behind bars.
After three women were found dead in Bushey, Hertfordshire, the new home secretary, Yvette Cooper, said she will “swiftly” consider findings of the review to see if the laws need to be tightened further.
I read it was the boyfriend.
I thought maybe an invader. A covid vax victim's family member. But, no.
I guessed a boyfriend, the ages of the women, one was the mother, another a sister or friend.
A crossbow is some serious vengeance. Ouch. Shitty way to go.
I feel for the hubby, lost his wife and two of his daughters. But the government will use this to remove the peoples ability to fight back, if it ever comes down to that.
Absolutely true. Those vultures would pounce on any carcass to further their agenda.
A crossbow is a serious stealth weapon. Silent and as deadly as a handgun. Far more powerful and much greater impact and range than a compound bow. In Michigan many archery deer and bear hunters have switched to crossbows since they were made legal to hunt with. I use crossbows, compound and recurve myself. Crossbow for trophy hunting, compound to fill the larder and recurve in December when I just want to get out there in Michigans winter wonderland.
These 'shocking human tragedy' stories always seem to occur when politically inconvenient things are going on.
My thoughts exactly, the article brought up the previous "crossbow" crimes and the tory governments inquiry into possible restrictions.
Now the new government will do just that, because so many people are walking about with crossbows and firing at each other, oh wait, they just use easy to get or make, close encounter knives...
They really want us defenceless, I am even suspect of some dog incidents, dogs can be trained.
Kyle (Rittenhouse) shot (crossbow) three people of the 'correct' (BBC) wing. There's so much programming in these stories.
Like the Nicola 'Bully' thing last year. Mental middle class drunk woman falls in a river and dies. Mentally ill and or addicts have accidents and die very often. But wall to wall coverage for weeks. Why was it more important than other 'news' going on at that time?
