The claim that "Henry's family is grieving" is clearly supported by extensive evidence. "Henry" refers to Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old Southampton University student who was murdered in December 2025 by Vickrum Digwa (sentenced to life with a minimum of 21 years on June 1, 2026). His family — father Mark Nowak, mother Lucy Ross, and stepmother Katie Woodcock — made a public statement outside court after the sentencing, appealing for calm and asking that his death not be used to create division. Multiple news outlets describe them as a "grieving family." Keir Starmer himself met with the family at Downing Street and described their "dignity and strength in the face of unimaginable pain," and said "they're grieving, they've lost their son." The family's own public statement, quoted by Darren Paffey MP in the Commons, said: "We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We want his story to make our streets safer for everyone." There is no ambiguity here — a family whose teenage son was murdered is grieving, and this is confirmed by both their own public words and the statements of multiple public officials who met with them.
