I can’t bring myself to comment on this story about the murder of 47-year old Glaswegian Daniel McEwan, who was ‘alleged’ to have touched his 24-year-old murderess on the chest, beyond reflecting on how little a man’s life is worth in Britain today:

An extract from the BBC article:
It was alleged Mr McEwan – who kept in poor health and rarely left his own home – touched McKelvie on the chest while at the property. This prompted Fleming to kick the father-of-two before Mr McEwan attempted to leave the flat. Prosecutor Bill McVicar said McKelvie then followed Mr McEwan out and struck him on the throat with a piece of glass. A dying Mr McEwan was then abandoned before a resident discovered him.
Me too!
I’m struggling to grasp how murder and culpable homicide are different.
