who stabbed a 21 year old to death, by not caring properly for him.

Surely they failed the 21 year old.

Absolutely no blame must be attached to the brat, sorry the child.

He's just a victim of circumstance.

A damn good hiding at some point in his life might have done the trick to bring him back on course.
It's probably too late now.

@Dr Crippen -- A damn good hiding at some point in his life might have done the trick to bring him back on course.

Fishing?

[Murderer was a] deeply troubled boy who lived in a home where criminality was routine and faced 'astonishing' levels of violence 'perpetrated within and against the household'
...
When Williams and an older sibling finally revealed what was going on, they described 'a chaotic existence, severe physical punishment, unpredictability and the fear of violence', the report reveals.
(from Daily Mail)

Part of the problem appears to be that social workers took the view it is OK for black kids to be knocked around by their parents.

What's astonishing' levels of violence got to do with correcting a brat for misbehaving?

In his case obviously it would have  been inappropriate, it appears that violence was being used routinely anyway.
And by thugs who weren't interested in the boy's welfare or good upbringing.

I wrote too soon. I assumed we were dealing with regular people.

Murderer was Black; victim was Argentinian. Like 99 per cent of murders, it's a complete bloody mess with no rational justification or even explanation.
