[News] Donatello Restaurant co-owner killed by grandson

[Weststander]

I disagree, she was murdered. The killer may have been found guilty under a different charge but it doesn't change the fact that the poor woman was murdered.

The mods don't agree with that.

Not clicking on the link to that hateful site, but he still killed her, no?

Pleaded guilty to manslaughter. Not guilty of murder as he was allegedly in a psychotic state, meaning he had diminished responsibility.

The mods don't agree with that.

No problem, there's no issue with the tread being titled, "... killed by grandson".

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Mods - the thread title needs adjusting.

No, he killed her. It was manslaughter, not pre-meditated murder. He pleaded guilty to manslaughter and the court/jury agrees.

Mods - the thread title needs adjusting.

The thread title had been adjusted before two of the posts saying it didn't need adjusting.

"killed by Grandson" is the new thread title, not the one Weststander asked to change.

Sad business all round

Until 30 minutes ago the thread title said "murdered" hence my request.

Yes, GB has just explained it.

Edit: I think I misinterpreted the purpose of your post!

NSC is a broadchurch of thread subjects and opinions, which is its USP but speaking as someone who knew the deceased as the genuine, lovely, public spirited person that she was, do we really need this kind of debate on this site?

This was a horrendous and tragic incident, there are clearly no winners, so can the mods not delete the whole thread please?

Really?

It’s more a sad indictment of the addiction culture and the mental illness epidemic in this country, hence why the need not to have this debate regarding this horrendous incident involving a lovely lady many of us knew on NSC.

Local family with long-standing Albion connections…..pretty likely some of them are even on here. Wouldn’t usually suggest it (free speech and all that) but maybe out of respect for them this thread needs to be closed/binned.
