They all need answers, and I think they need them quick.

As far as the gun culture and the criminal activity is concerned,

But the question arises of the way this was carried out.

In my opinion, it was totally out of order.

The question is, the way it was handled.

We cannot just go around and shoot people on the spot like this.

More detail about the police operation emerged at an inquest

which was opened and adjourned in Bradford this morning.

It has taken the family the best part of 12 years

to get a formal diagnosis for William.

The family have also been told there is no cure in his case.

So they will have to find a way to live with it.

When he is in full rhythmic movement, every night,

it sounds like someone's throwing a basketball

against the wall and keeps the whole family awake.

The family now want to buy a special, protective bed -

called a Safespace - and build a soundproof extension

But they estimate it will cost ?30,000 and so they have started
