Cordoned off, lots of police. Anyone know what's happening?
My daughter just text me. 2 people murders around 5:30am
Apparently a murder by Matalan. Ex boyfriend on boyfriend allegedly.
Must be bad. They've closed the whole street off for the day.
1 person in custody. Not looking for anyone else.
20 year old lad arrested, so I'm guessing the victims were also pretty young. What a tragic waste of life.
And when the scum has been found guilty , what sentence will he get, 15 18 21 years, out in 12, it's bloody ridiculous murderers should be put away till they die, you get more time for fraud, justice in this country is one big joke. I am not advocating bringing back hanging , but life should mean life!
Absolutely shocking that this has happened, appears to be very calculated as well as the murderer was found in his home in Castleton. Like the above poster says, life should mean life for this type of murder.
At which point the lad will be 60 which begs the question why release him in the first place. Life should mean life, three square meals a day, water and an hour exercise every day for the rest of their lives. Prison should be about reforming characters but people guilty of crimes like this should have no such resources put into them, there's just no point.
Mandatory life sentence. Doesn't matter much what the minimum tariff would be as both the parole board and Home Secretary would have to okay a release on licence. I'll go for a whole life sentence.
Used to work with one of the victims, Lee Simmons, for a period when I was a student about 8 or so years ago. He was a nice guy, quiet and unassuming and didn't rub anyone up the wrong way.
From the reports it appears it was a jilted lovers attack on an ex girlfriend, and Lee was at the scene and attempted to intervene with both getting stabbed in the process. Such a sad needless loss of life hope the person responsible gets sentenced accordingly.
RIP Lee and Zoe thoughts are with your family and friends.
Desperately sad incident
Can't imagine what the parents feel like this evening.
A total waste of 3 lives

Again I would look to my understanding of the Scandinavian model where there is an initial sentence but it is reviewed and can be added to. I would also ask how difficult is it not to murder someone? The world would be an infinitely better place.
It was a sad scene to see flowers being rested outside the shop.

This was shared to me on Facebook. A gofundme page to assist with costs for Lee's funeral. Unsure if another was setup for Zoe.
