Tom Gaughan - What's the point?

On Friday 21 July 2023, Tom Gaughan was out with his friend in Cleethorpes when Connor Hulse, who was also out with friends, walked past him. A verbal altercation took place between the two groups, which escalated into a physical fight.
During the fight, Hulse pulled a knife from the waistband of his trousers and began to swing it around before lunging towards Tom with the knife, causing injuries to his head, ear, shoulder, and arm.
Emergency services attended and Tom was taken to hospital where he remained until Tuesday 15 August 2023 when he died as a result of his injuries.
Connor Hulse was found guilty of murder and was jailed for life with a minimum term of 23 years.
In this emotional video, Tom’s Grandad, Aunty, and one of his young daughters speak of the crushing impact Tom’s murder has had on them all.
For the purpose of this film, we are concealing the face of Tom’s daughter to protect her anonymity due to her young age. We are also concealing the identity of Tom’s other young children who are spoken about in the film.
