A judge slammed authorities after a man accused of rape — who threatened to “chop her into little pieces” and bury her — was released on bail. Despite wielding a knife and reiterating murder threats, he walked free until a brave former soldier intervened, disarming him and alerting police — only to be ignored for 24 hours. The soldier, now filing a formal complaint and contacting his MP, is hailed as a hero who may have saved a life. Edwards pleaded guilty to threats, affray, and public knife possession, citing brain injury and schizophrenia, but the judge called him “very dangerous,” sentencing him to 3 years 8 months, plus 5 years license and a 15-year restraining order. Police are reviewing the case, acknowledging the court’s concerns.
