Teenager detained for 12 years minimum for attempted murder at private Blundell’s school in Devon
A teenager who attacked two sleeping students and a teacher with hammers at a private school in Devon has been sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 12 years after being found guilty of attempted murder.
The 17-year-old, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, was armed with three claw hammers and waited for the two boys to be asleep before attacking them at Blundell’s school in Tiverton, Exeter crown court heard.
He was wearing just his boxer shorts and used weapons he had collected to prepare for a “zombie apocalypse”, the court was told.
It takes zero effort to be explicit. It would also lessens the misinformation potential.
Nice way of being racist; brown people can’t attend a private school huh…
Some put forth Herculean effort to be offended.
OH MY GOD HERCULES IS JUST CULTURAL APPROPRIATION OF HERACLES HELP IM BEING OPPRESSED
Given just two pieces of demographic info:
Devon.
Private school.
You’re probably the only person on the planet who’s questioning the ethnicity of the assailant, much less even giving it any thought or relevance whatsoever.
It’s not racist to point out the systemic biases present in systems. Private schools have overwhelmingly white students from affluent families. It isn’t right, but it isn’t racist to point it out.
