The harrowing inside story of the ice hockey star whose blade killed a rival ...and why that was just the start of his torture, writes IAN HERBERT

IAN HERBERT: Some were so desperate to point a finger when Adam Johnson, a Nottingham Panthers ice hockey player, was killed on the rink in the sport's darkest day.



Ice hockey player Adam Johnson died after his carotid artery was severed by Matt Petgrave's skate during a game. Petgrave, one of the few players of color in professional ice hockey, faces potential charges, and is awaiting a decision that will decide his freedom, while South Yorkshire Police continue their investigation and await new evidence. Experts debate whether Petgrave had control of his skates, a crucial point for potential prosecution, and some question why relevant expert testimony hasn't been sought by the police.
