British police faced backlash on Tuesday over the case of an 18-year-old student who was handcuffed as he lay dying from stab wounds after his killer falsely alleged a racist attack.
Unlike what movies portray, it’s actually possible to sustain a penetrating wound to the heart, particularly the pericardium, that will take time to be fatal
A patient can be standing there, talking to you, with a small red spot on their shirt
I’m not defending the cops, but it’s not as simple as people think
I served in the ambulance service

He said he couldn’t breathe
Have you watched the video?
The murderer is visibly wearing a knife when the police contact him, the victim immediately tells the police he’s been stabbed.
They don’t believe him and don’t even check before cuffing him.
The murderer standing there armed with a knife isn’t cuffed at any stage.
That’s not what I said
Again, I think the cops fucked it
But you aren’t listening, and I don’t care
The point is the cops didn’t even look to see if he was injured. They didn’t ask where he was stabbed. They didn’t look for blood.
Literally just ‘sure ya have’ and cuffed his arms behind his back.
Pure negligence.
