DANIEL RADCLIFFE CONSOLES STARS FAMILY

Daniel Radcliffe

Harry Potter icon Daniel Radcliffe has sent a moving note of condolence to the mother of tragic co-star Robert Knox, who was stabbed to death in a brutal attack last year in England. Eighteen year old Knox lost his life last May, after a fight outside a nightclub in Kent, England turned very violent. His killer, 22 year old Karl Bishop, was sentenced to life imprisonment yesterday. And Radcliffe is joining forces with Knox’s close friends and colleagues from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to pay tribute to the young rising star, by turning a copy of author J.K. Rowling’s sixth novel, on which the film is based, into a book of condolences for Knox’s mother. Radcliffe wrote, "We are all proud to have known you and devastated to have lost you. It is terrible just to write this note. Rest In Peace." He also quoted a line from a letter by poet D.H. Lawrence, adding, "To anyone else who reads this remember, ‘The Dead don’t die. They look on and help’", before signing the note, "Dan xxx".
