The BBC reported that Craig Keogh, of no fixed address, has been charged with murder and two counts of rape and burglary in relation to the death of 72 year old Jane Hings.

It seems the BBC has lost their grip on grammar as well as reality.

No bungalows were killed but a woman was allegedly raped and murdered. Even if they had managed the correct sentence structure, Jane Hings’ personhood is more important than the type of house she was in when she was killed.

FixedIt is an ongoing project to push back against the media’s constant erasure of violent men and blaming of innocent victims. If you would like to help fund it – even $5 a month makes a big difference – please consider becoming a Patron
