Where did you read that he had attempted to kill someone? The article says he verbally threatened her, and brandished (waved) a knife. Threatening someone is obviously wrong, but it's totally different from attempting to kill someone.

Your question: Where did you read that he had attempted to kill someone?

Your answer: The article says he verbally threatened her, and brandished (waved) a knife.

Verbally threatening someone and waving a knife if not the same thing as attempting to kill someone.

Where does it say he attempted to kill her?

Threatening someone and then waving a knife qualifies as attempting to kill someone for me. (Source - chased by drugged out dude with a knife because I did not give him money.)

As to this man, okay stupid games win stupid prizes. You threaten someone and brandish a knife, if you get shot, oh well. (And with that sort of behavior, odds that he’d never have killed anyone are not ones I’d take.)

Let’s see how you’d feel if you were the one he brandished the knife at?
