    1. Father knew what he was capable of, charge him. Let them both serve their sentences here, deport as soon as finished. No I’m not far right, I voted Labour last GE.

      Edit: Deport = father. Nice try apologists, you were quick to that of course.

      > There is no suggestion Rudakubana’s father knew what he is believed to have been planning at the school, but an eyewitness said: ‘There was a confrontation and Rudakubana was eventually persuaded to leave the vehicle.’

      He should have been sectioned or his dad should have taken him to the police station and explained what he’d just witnessed. Even if his family didn’t know what his true intentions are it doesn’t matter you don’t go out with a knife unless you’re looking for violence.

    3. That’s actually a terrifying mugshot. Even in the absence of his crimes he appears deeply mentally ill just by his appearance.

      There are some people just not suited for participation in society. What horror it is that it took the deaths of three children to find out.

      So his father knew but didn’t tell authorities? How fucking stupid do you have to be, he should be locked up too…

    5. And people say there’s nothing in physiognomy!

      No wonder the family have all gone into hiding. The father is just as culpable for not doing anything more to stop his deranged son.

      > The incident would have been Britain’s first US-style high school mass-killing.

      > The only previous mass murder at a British school was the Dunblane massacre in 1996, when gunman Thomas Hamilton entered a primary school in Dunblane, Scotland, shooting dead 16 young children and their teacher before turning the gun on himself.

      Cracking journalism there lads, well done.

    7. I utterly fail to understand the terrorist aspect of this horrible youngster’s crime. Terrorists usually perform their attacks to make their “cause” widely known and talked about. But in this particular case – what dogma, what message, what ideology could he want to promote by attacking innocent children?

      What I see is a deeply mentally ill young individual who should have been isolated in a mental health institution years ago. Good thing that he is being locked up now. But, is he a terrorist? Even if his intent was indeed terrorism (which I doubt), by keeping completely silent about his motives, he is doing a terrible “job” at it.

      Or am I missing something? I just can’t comprehend what’s going on in this person’s deeply troubled mind.

    8. Surely planning a mass murder is an offence on its own. Why didn’t he report his son to the police?
      The father needs charging for his part in all of this.

      He will be prosecuted and he will go away for the rest of his life. Unfortunately, when his father chose to not help his son by not having him locked up for plotting the first mass murder, that was the only real chance to stop this travesty. People make their own choices in this life

    10. Nothing about this is normal or okay. We can’t just wave our hands and say mental health here.

    11. Lock this guy up and never, ever let him out again. Some people can be rehabilitated and other have evilness inside and there is no way to rid them of it. IF he ever gets out, he will kill again – 100%.

      Also fhe blood is on his fathers hands. He fucking knew and he should have turned his son in. Those poor girls, it honestly breaks my heart.

    12. So, the dad knew? And said nothing?

      Honestly if the dad didn’t say a damn thing he needs to be put on trial.

    13. Children do not raise themselves, charge the father too. Instead of sitting at cafes discussing politics (i know what I’m talking about) he should’ve been with his children.

      This is WAY too common in certain ‘communities’
