Birmingham bus stabbing death: Man, 22, arrested on suspicion of murder of 16 ...

It's funny how everyone turns to caveman principles as soon as something bad happens.

Gets locked up in our prisons? That really isn't that bad, prison isn't what it used to be, it's just like having a shabby apartment :/

And OP, I agree with the comments, there's nothing stupid there...

You're an idiot.
If you want a better response maybe you should have elaborated.

Getting locked up in a cell for most of the day and having every aspect of your life controlled for life isnt that bad? Okay some prisons abroad are much stricter in comparison but that doesnt make UK prisons not that bad.

Okay let's say this guy is having massive financial problems, can't get a roof over his head and can't afford food.. In our prisons, you get 3 square meals a day, and sit in a centrally heated room. Fair enough you can't go out and would be bored a lot of the time, but boredom is hardly an apt punishment for stabbing an innocent girl!

Actually, you are an idiot. A smug self satisfied one.

The man has been sectioned under the mental health act. I thought he might have been a mental illness sufferer when they found him right near the scene of the crime.

Tragic case of wrong place at the wrong time and questions need to be asked about how the man slipped through the relevant authorities nets.

He is the right age (just about) to be someone with first-onset psychosis. In which case, it is very possible he had no contact with medical, psychiatric or legal services whatsoever.

Unfortunately the nets don't (and can't) cover all young people who may develop psychosis. Unless someone's family/friends can pick up on the changes and refer them, a lot of people become frankly psychotic before being picked up (by the police) for unusual behaviour in a public place / reports from neighbours etc. NOTE: it is extremely rare for someone to present with violent behaviour, it's just very unlucky for an individual (and anyone they hurt) if this is the way their psychosis takes them.

I think if this person is psychotic, it is important to remember how clouded and confused they might be, and the sort of horrible delusions, thought distortions and hallucinations they might be experiencing which drive their behaviour.

Although this person might not have such an extenuating psychosis, at this stage keeping an open mind is best, imo.

Completely agree with all of that

It's ok goooooooooooooooise, he will get rehabilitation in prison and when he comes out he will be a happy member of society.
/leftardism.

I hate to say it but I bet he gets a soft sentence and will be out within a year or two.
