In July, the world was horrified by the stabbing deaths of three young girls at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event. The tragedy in Southport, England, also left eight children and two adults injured. Newsweek reports that the person charged with the crime, 18-year-old Axel Rudakubana, has pleaded not guilty; his trial will start in January. Taylor issued a statement after the killings, saying she was “completely in shock,” adding, “These were just little kids at a dance class. I am at a complete loss for how to ever convey my sympathies to these families.”
