Hammer Attack on Politician Ann Widdecombe | London News

A shocking murder case unfolds as Joshua Kerry, 28, faces charges for allegedly bludgeoning former politician Ann Widdecombe 21 times with a hammer at her Dartmoor home.

Prosecutors claim Kerry entered and committed the crime within two minutes. He appeared in court, confirmed his identity, and remains in custody. Authorities are probing whether political or terrorist motives played a role, given Widdecombe’s high-profile career and reality TV fame.
