The woman in intensive care is a friend (and distant relation) of mine, the husband is a proper scumbag, he's brought plenty of trouble to their door before this.

That's awful, sorry to hear that man.

It's shocking TBH, she's lovely. Had her issues like anyone but he's always been bad news. Drink (in and out of dependancy units, disappearing for weeks at a time then turning up under bridges with winos), drugs (ripping off dealers, shots fired at the house), etc.

If he goes away, the trouble with dealers will catch up with him. If he gets off or gets out, her friends will catch up with him. Either way he's fucked, which I'm alright with.

The main thing is that I hope she'll pull through, though it doesn't look good.

Man that's shocking. Hopefully she pulls through buck.

She died this evening. He was charged this morning, another hearing tomorrow where I imagine the charge will be upgraded.

Well fuck. Sorry for your loss.


Jesus fucking Christ. That's awful. Condolences man.


Truly awful to lose someone like that, really sorry man.

Thanks lads but I should clarify - she was a friend, but I hadn't seen much of her lately. Mainly due to yer man, he wasn't someone anyone wanted to be near so a distance grew. As for being related, it's distant, cousins in common kinda thing.

I don't want to run the risk of misrepresenting myself.

I appreciate it though, the whole town is shocked by it. Nobody saw it coming, and TBF the only one now who knows what happened is in a cell so I'm doing my best to reign in my speculation. Seems likely he'll go down for a long time, I doubt he'll last long either way.
