25岁的Anthony Esan在2024年7月对英国陆军军官Mark Teeton中校在肯特Brompton军营附近遭到有目标的用刀攻击认罪后,根据医院命令被判处无期徒刑。 Anthony Esan, 25, was sentenced to life in prison with a hospital order after pleading guilty to a targeted July 2024 knife attack on Lieutenant Colonel Mark Teeton, a British Army officer, near Brompton Barracks in Kent. Esan患有精神分裂症和精神病史,在袭击发生前几天购买了刀子,并调查了暴力事件,包括杀害士兵Lee Rigby的事件。 Esan, who had schizophrenia and a history of mental health issues, purchased knives days before the attack and researched violent incidents, including the murder of soldier Lee Rigby. 法庭听说,尽管他患有精神病,但由于对军队的怨恨,袭击是蓄意和有预谋的。 The court heard the assault was deliberate and premeditated, driven by a grudge against the Army, despite his mental illness. Esan在Teeton身穿制服时攻击他,他将无限期地留在高度戒备的Broadmoor医院,将来的释放须经假释委员会核准。 Esan, who attacked Teeton while he wore his uniform, will remain at high-security Broadmoor Hospital indefinitely, with future release subject to Parole Board approval. Teeton伤势严重,但幸存下来,他称赞应急反应人员和他的妻子Eileen,他们在袭击中进行干预。 Teeton, critically injured but survived, praised emergency responders and his wife Eileen, who intervened during the attack. 法官强调,Esan对公众构成重大风险。 The judge emphasized Esan poses a significant risk to the public.
