Why in heaven's name aren't the prosecutors doing their job and charging these so called friends who held that epileptic hostage with murder?
Unfortunately, all this crap about "hate crimes" hides the fact that in many urban parts of the UK everyone is at risk from random acts of violence. If someone is locked in a shed and tortured to death, should it make a difference if they're epileptic, black, gay or a middle-class white male? Of course it shouldn't, but in reality it does. Some of the most vile cases of torture resulting in death are committed against white, able-bodied heterosexual males, yet they rarely make the news. There was one lad captured by an ethnic-minority gang, who was castrated before being burnt to death. But that's not considered newsworthy.
