Teen Sentenced for Machete Attack | London News

A seventeen-year-old was sentenced to 20 years for brutally killing Adam Khan with a machete in Luton — a victim on the brink of a promising accounting career. The teen, Emmanuel Avogo, lured Khan to a street with a 16-year-old girl, who was later given a two-year detention order. Though she didn’t know about the weapon, the judge noted Khan had been harassing her and offering drugs — yet the violence was still unacceptable. The teen’s history of knife-carrying and prior offenses led to the harsh sentence, while authorities lifted his anonymity to deter youth violence. The family’s grief echoes the devastating cost of this senseless act. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
