News & Events
Tom Storey KC prosecuted a far right extremist guilty of attempting to murder an asylum seeker in terrorist-motivated attack.
The defendant was found to have in his possession multiple works reflecting an extreme right wing or neo-Nazi ideology, and to have posted multiple messages on X (Twitter) of an extreme racist nature, expressing a willingness to use extreme violence towards non-white people in this country.
He had armed himself with a specialist hand-made knife and travelled to a hotel outside Worcester that had been used by the Home Office to house asylum-seekers, specifically with the aim of attacking and killing one such resident.
He had prepared a terrorist manifesto document which he was in the process of posting to X at the point he was arrested after his attack.
The case was heard at Leicester Crown Court before Mr Justice Dove and lasted 3 weeks.
Mr Storey KC was instructed by CPS Counter Terrorism Unit.
