From the BBC:
One of the people stabbed to death in Friday's attack at London Bridge has been named as 25-year-old University of Cambridge graduate Jack Merritt.
He was one of two people killed when 28-year-old Usman Khan launched the attack at a Cambridge University conference on prisoner rehabilitation.
Khan, who had been jailed over a terror plot, was shot dead by police after members of the public restrained him.
Mr Merritt was described by his father on Twitter as a "beautiful spirit".
A woman who died in the attack - declared by officers as a terrorist incident - has not yet been named. Three others were injured.
Mr Merritt, from Cambridge, was a course coordinator for Learning Together, a prisoners' rehabilitation programme which was hosting the conference at Fishmongers' Hall, at the north end of London Bridge.
UPDATE: London Islamist Stabber USman Khan Was Previously Convicted for “Islamic Terrorism”, Was a Guest Lecturer at Cambridge U on “Prisoner Rehabilitation”
AND THEN THERE'S THIS:

I have zero patience with academics who believe Islamic terror doctrine can be solved by social experiments.

I truly am sorry for the man's death, but just a tad bitter because it was so unnecessary.
Why are you sorry for his death when his ideology - and the ideology of thousands like him - are what prevent our societies from exercising the reasonable restraints which would protect us?
I would call that reaping what you sowed.
