Who Cares...??

[Beebo]

So sad about the three women killed in Bushey.
Male violence against women continues to be a massive issue.
What on earth makes a man believe he can kill not only his ex partner but her mother and sister too as some sort of revenge.
They must be weak minded as to feel so aggrieved that he has to kill them to feel better.

Outstanding piece on the Pelicot case, by Sophie Smith in LRB. A tough read, but an essential one.

Indeed. A hard read.

A long and worthwhile read.

After a comment in the Good News Only thread, I had considered starting a thread on this crime with a title of ‘51 monsters’ but these were ordinary men of varying backgrounds and careers, people who ‘weren’t like that’, not societal aberrations. Perhaps the title should just be ‘51 men’.
