Distinguishing Features / Details: He pleaded guilty to wounding with intent and violent disorder in Dovecot, Liverpool, on 1 May 2014. He was part of a gang who carried out an armed racist attack on their victims, a black church minister and his family. The court heard that the gang called the ministers 14-year-old daughter a n***** as she walked home from school. Later the gang threw a rock at their victims vehicle and blocked the road. When their victims exited the vehicle the gang attacked them using a knife/machete, baseball bat, sticks and a fence panel with a nail in it.

The judge said: "You targeted a vulnerable family for one reason and one reason only, and that was the colour of their skin. It is totally unacceptable in any civilised society ... As a fellow human being, I felt ashamed at hearing of these events... The word must go out that when racially aggravated offences are committed, severe punishment must and will follow. What each of you did and uttered was vile and abhorrent in the extreme and it was driven by racial hatred"
