Saying horrible things about someone upon their death gives a way of what kind of person you are, but I don't see why it should be literally illegal.

Him.
“Heather” Herbert is a man.
*His* behaviour on social media is classic male pattern aggression. It is demeaning to attribute his behaviour to that of a woman. Violence, and threats of violence, are overwhelmingly a male problem and arrest/charge/conviction statistics are skewed unhelpfully if we pretend that we cannot name things for what they are.
This is a picture of him. His name is Scott.
