Man who drove at Maida Vale woman’s killer says he was trying to save herMotorist asks police to de-arrest him and to treat him as a witness to Yasmine Chkaifi’s killing by her ex Whole situation sounds fucked I think a charge of murder should only happen IF the evidence clearly suggests that was his intention. Unless that is the case, he should be treated as a witness. Charging him without being certain will only deter people from intervening in attacks in the future. This is so sad. I honestly believe that when you meet a man always pray about Him so that God can reveal who the person really is to you. Also as a woman you must be observant and never ignore the warning signs (and think that he will change, leave the country if needed)
