Law UK Transwoman Kills Husband with Samurai Sword, Gets No Prison Time - Why is the UK so Woke?

[Xanzito]

It is comments like this that ended up causing my trans friend to kill themselves.

Sorry to be blunt, but if your friend offed itself, maybe he/she wasn't mentally healthy?

 

[shinkyoku]

Same here...
If you get sentence to loony bin, they dont give you years.
You can end up doing more time than you would have done in prison.
Its also a terrible place... There is still violence and the people there are well... insane.

How TS manage to get it to woke I wont understand.

Because a woke nation letting a trans person go free after killing someone with a sword suited his purpose of this thread, and many other threads, better than the full story?

Why Brighton? Is that like the LA of the US?

Its the gay capital of the UK, basically.

Mentally ill people need help. I’m sorry that your friend didn’t get the help they needed.

 

[Stoic1]

Trans and mental illness are synonymous. It does not absolve them from responsibility for their actions.

lol... Not its not

Your "trans" friend had mental issues... and everyone close to him, including you, enabled that illness

Now... who assisted in him killing himself again?

You had more than one trans friend that kill themselves?

It's the UKs version of Portland - but more insane.

He’s gonna be property of the state in some facility for the criminally insane. Although it’s UK so who knows how that works.

We don't really have the term criminally insane here. You are either deemed to have capacity or not. No capacity to look after yourself, general mental health water. Risk to others - high security mental health ward.

Detained under S41 means you are such a high risk to others, in that you literally have no concept or wrong, that only the secretary of state can authorize your release.

Did you see his teeth? Probably killed him over his breath.

 

[Kingz]

Well, a judge correctly deemed that a “trans woman” was too mentally deranged to stand trial. I believe it.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Dude got sent to the funny farm for life. Probably should have done it when it thought it was a woman but ended up there in the end anyways.

 

[WhiteMousse]

Don't think there's a political slant here. They were married so the husband obviously accepted them the way they are. The person should be tried like anyone else.

 

[The Servant]

Where you can go to jail for tweets but murder is ok.

Transwomen in the UK killed husband with a samurai sword. He claimed self defense, but sliced and stabbed 50 times so obviously not true.

Somehow the UK judge didn't rule for prison, but a hospital.

Transgender woman, 71, slashed partner partner to death with a samurai sword

Joanna Rowland-Stuart stabbed Andrew Rowland-Stuart at their home in Brighton in May 2024

Joanna Rowland-Stuart was previously deemed unfit to plead following a psychiatric assessment

A man was killed by his transgender wife after being slashed more than 50 times with a samurai sword.

Joanna Rowland-Stuart, 71, stabbed Andrew Rowland-Stuart, 70, at their home in Brighton in May 2024 in what a jury found was an unlawful killing.
Rowland-Stuart, who is transgender, was deemed unfit to plead following a psychiatric assessment.

However, on Thursday, jurors at Lewes Crown Court found that Rowland-Stuart had killed Mr Rowland-Stuart in a trial of the act, which decides if someone physically committed a crime, rather than their intent.

As a result, Rowland-Stuart was given an indefinite Hospital Order under Section 41 of the Mental Health Act 1983.

The couple married in a civil partnership in 2006 and lived in a 15th-floor flat.

Prosecutor Charlotte Newell KC said: “Whatever the cause for attacking Andrew, the sheer number and the nature of the wounds inflicted could not have been a reasonable use of force.”

The court was told Rowland-Stuart’s legs and stomach were covered in blood on doorbell camera footage.
Rowland-Stuart could then be seen knocking on two neighbours’ doors, before shouting “help” and “Andy’s dead”.

Ms Newell KC added that while on the phone to the police, Rowland-Stuart said: “My husband Andrew has tried to kill me with a samurai sword and in the scuffle I managed to turn the sword towards him and he has fallen on the sword.”
However, despite the claims of self-defence, the jury was told Rowland-Stuart’s hand injuries were consistent with holding a weapon after “stabbing and slicing him” more than 50 times.

When police arrived, the walls, cabinet, sofa and shower were covered in blood, although the blade – which had been bought in the 1980s – had been put back in its sheath.
The court was told that recovered internet searches from Rowland-Stuart’s phone in the weeks before the death showed 14 results for swords, including replica swords, curved swords, samurai curved swords, Japanese swords and Japanese sword names.

A statement released on behalf of Mr Rowland-Stuart’s family said: “We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone involved with this case over the past year.
“To DC Anna Stacey for her care and communication with the family while we were in England and back home in New Zealand, and to Andrew’s Sussex 4x4 family, especially Jason, who helped us immensely while we were there.”

Det Ch Insp Alex Campbell, of Sussex Police, said: “Our thoughts remain with the family of Andrew, and we want to thank everyone who has assisted us in this complex investigation.”

She's been detained in a criminal mental asylum, she doesn't have keys to roam around. You don't think mentally incapable to plead is just UK based? It happens here heaps.

Prisons don't have the staff capable of looking after mentally fucked in the head people here or in the UK.

Bad laws, bad judges, and judicial immunity is far worse for society than vigilante justice.

Accepted who? The way who is? This language is so confusing to us/me.

The trans woman. Sorry- what I'm saying is, the husband accepted his trans wife the way they are.

To add to my thought though, I don't think it's valid to use the trans identity as any kind of defense against this kind of behavior. One of the pillars in trans acceptance mantra is that they need to be treated as real people (I agree with that) and that they're not mentally ill (not really sure I agree with that). So there needs to be consistency. It's possible that this person could muster a defense of an insanity plea but it would have to be on different grounds, not based on anything related to their identity as a trans person. You can't have it both ways.

San Francisco is the LGBTQ capital of the US.

Why is it more insane? Brighton's wonderful, broke my coccyx falling over with my sister in law in the wind after an Eddie Izzard gig. The Lanes are like nowhere else in the world.

 

[Aurelian]

Well not the dead person. He's dead.

Yeah, sorry about that. Using pronouns can cause confusion. The transwoman deserves prison. Yeah the other person is dead.
