All news on the topic: Elsie Dot Stancombe

Southport killer Axel Rudakabana has been transferred to Broadmoor secure hospital, the Ministry of Justice has said.

Fury has erupted after it was revealed that 48 staff at a Liverpool hospital trust inappropriately accessed the records of Southport stabbing victims.

The Prince of Wales told a yoga teacher who survived the Southport attack “you’re so brave,” and she said it was “like meeting an old friend again” after they chatted at a garden party.

Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, were killed at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event in July 2024, by crazed teen Axel Rudakubana.

The Southport attack could have been prevented if Axel Rudakubana’s parents and multiple agencies had acted, a public inquiry has found.

The brother of the Southport attacker told a friend his sibling "doesn’t really show mercy" leaving his dad trying "not to die" two years before his fatal attack, the public inquiry has heard.

The heartbroken mother of a seven-year-old girl killed in the Southport attack has told a public inquiry: “I need to understand how this happened.”
