She had to be cut out of the wire and miscarried soon after.

    Yea, fortunately barbwire IS NOT a booby trap and Katko v Briney wasn’t talking about barbwire.

      It’s razor wire, not barbwire. It caused life-threatening injuries (in one case caused a miscarriage - isn’t abortion murder, according to many folks?) and was deliberately placed in spots where it wouldn’t be seen.

      It’s a booby trap. It doesn’t have to literally be a shotgun set up in exactly the same way as Katko v Briney for it to count as one.
