Anti-knife crime campaigners expressed outrage after Davis avoided prison

Kyle Davis, 18, was given a suspended sentence despite being caught with cocaine and a knife – his second weapons offence.
The case, which comes amid mounting fury at the number of teenage stab victims, will fuel concerns about soft justice for knife offenders.
Davis laughed as he swaggered out of Birmingham magistrates’ court, taking a selfie on his phone to record his glee at escaping prison.
Only a few miles away three teenagers had lost their lives in 12 days of carnage that police leaders described as a ‘national emergency’.
In London, two boys aged 15 – one caught with a hooked knife and the other with two hidden blades – were let off with youth rehabilitation orders yesterday.
