According to the transcript, it took police officers eight minutes after arriving at the scene to discover that Henry had suffered a fatal stab wound to his chest. Despite their efforts, saving Henry’s life was unsuccessful. Medical assistance continued for an additional 51 minutes until an emergency doctor, who had arrived by helicopter, officially noted Henry’s time of death as 00:37 on 4 December 2025.

During the trial, testimony was provided about the critical nature of Henry’s wound. The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary relayed that a pathologist who testified in court confirmed there was no action officers could have taken to save Henry that day.

It’s very difficult to watch. I really feel for the family.
