On this page I have placed a few others that have also lost their lives to edged weapons. There are many more!
What a waste!
My heart goes out to all the families and friends of
all the victims of violent crime, be it with a weapon
or not. We as parents have to try and make a difference,
because the government have had their chance and things are now worse than ever!
