A shocking video shows classmates restraining Axel Rudakubana during school, just before he committed horrific crimes that shocked the nation
Rudakubana, now 18, has pleaded guilty to the murders of three young girls. The tragic events took place during a dance class last year. It’s hard to believe someone who was once a student could commit such horrific acts.
In the video, you can see students trying to stop him from reaching a teacher. This incident happened before he was permanently excluded from school in 2019. It’s unsettling to think about how things escalated from there.
Rudakubana was involved in several troubling incidents at school. He was referred to a taskforce aimed at preventing criminal behavior, but it seems the help he needed didn’t come in time.
During his trial, he also admitted to possessing a knife and a dangerous toxin. The judge made it clear that a life sentence is likely.
The school has expressed its condolences to the victims’ families and reassured everyone about student safety. They’ve distanced themselves from Rudakubana, emphasizing that he was excluded long before the tragic events unfolded.
In Parliament, the Home Secretary criticized the system for allowing him to buy a knife online despite his violent history. She promised to push for stricter regulations on knife sales.
This whole situation is just heartbreaking, and it raises so many questions about safety and prevention in schools.
