Rampaging beautician brandished homemade flamethrower in terrifying Tube attack

Why can't this individual take responsibility for their actions? Why does it have to be "blamed the family" and a "slow release bar [of medication"?

Why not just - this person is a menace to society and they need to be dealt with accordingly.

Not.

Our.

Crimes.

But also, Jesus there need to be lifelong institutional care for some people doesn't there? I know asylums were inhumane in most cases but why did the whole concept of keeping people safe just seem to get completely trashed? Surely there is a better solution.

Funny that women are deemed too thick to remember to take birth control daily, but people with mental health disorders and previous convictions etc can be trusted to take meds without a hitch. I think work to make slow release bars for all sorts of medication is a great idea!

Many medications for MH are slow release or depot. Problem is it does depend on the drug, some simply cannot be formulated that way.

There are times when I think care in the community and a lack of staffed, secure mental health facilities doesn't actually benefit the person with the issues or benefit the community.

Paris needs support and help, not to go from prison sentence to prison sentence.

And women deserve to be safe without looking out for Paris.

He was a beautiful young man who had an affaire with Helen of Troy wasnt he?

Indeed, but I doubt that a male character in Greek mythology is behind the popularity amongst those choosing a new women's name as an adult. Is it Paris Hilton, or just the capital of France that's the influence...?

It's a real issue that the prison service and the probation service can't deal with people like this who clearly have a complex set of interacting issues but are a danger to everyone around them.

Judge Silas Reid: “There are two sides to this lady — one is the side when she’s off medication and one is the side when she’s on it

I read this as it was the defending lawyer who said this, not the judge.

Badly written article though

So they just went after women - also disabled and Asian women.

Misogynistic, disabliast and racist?

The thread title alone just screams incongruity, doesn’t it? Sometimes I daydream about time travelling back to the 90s to warn everyone what was going to develop, but honestly they’d all just laugh.

As op said, actual transphobia, actual racism/xenophobia in the comments. Paris needs some heavy duty interventions. It would be good to see Paris being supported by one of the trans organisations?

They need some real help . Clearly short prison sentences (presumably in a women's prison, ffs) are not working.

What a terrifying individual.

I really didn't want to read this but as I share a city and public transport network with this violent male I thought I'd better memorise their face.

How lovely that they use their male socialisation and superior strength to attack and intimidate mainly women. Women who couldn't even claim in court that the attacks were motivated by misogynist hate, but who could, I presume, be forced to lie about the attacker's sex or face charges themselves.

This person targets women. Every single person attacked has been female except the pc pushed onto the track who tried to break up a fight.

Yep, male violence against women will be recorded as female on female. I also worry Paris will kill someone eventually

It's clear that prison's not working for Paris. It seems these events keep happening within days of release.

Feb 2021:

"Transgender beautician, 33, who once shoved police officer onto Tube tracks is jailed for nine months for barging grandmother to the ground at London Bridge a day after release from prison"

That Mirror article says nothing about them being transgender; anyone reading that would assume that they are female. Presumably they served their pathetic pittance of a sentence in a women’s prison, too.

Just shows that short sentences don't work. A clear candidate for throwing away the key.

This person targets women. Every single person attacked has been female except the pc pushed onto the track who tried to break up a fight.

He has assaulted tens of women. Is it going to take him killing one for them to lock him away for a decent period of time?

And alcohol abuse.

The court heard that last July Bregazzi had drunk four bottles of Prosecco and was arguing with a friend on the platform when PC Chegwin intervened.

In 2018 she was handed a suspended sentence for pushing PC Sam Chegwin onto a Tube line.

Just weeks later she was jailed for kneeing PC Florina Russ in the chest.

Drug abuse seems to be a major factor too.

Is there something about the kind of meds this person uses which means they couldn't be turned into little bars and put under your skin - like birth control?

It seems to me that the issue is that all it might take is forgetting to take your meds one morning, which throws a person off-kilter, so they decide not to take any more meds, and it all snowballs. Making it a slow-release bar would surely be a good idea in this case (just like it can be for birth control) given the absolutely horrific alternative of the violence this person exhibits when not medicated.

Paris Bregazzi has form, lots of it.

She has previous convictions for more than 60 offences including assault, harassment and shoplifting designer frocks and handbags dating back to 2007.

Paris does according to this have significant mental health problems.
