BBC News
A 14 -year -old girl stabbed two teachers and a student, and was convicted of attempted murder.
In April last year, Fiona Elias, Liz Hopkin and students were hospitalized after the YSGOL DYFFRYN AMAN of Carmarthenshire.
The 14 -year -old girl could not be named because of her age. She had previously denied three attempted murder and acknowledged stabbing.
The jury of the Swansea royal court listened to the evidence for a week and watched the attacked CCTV before making a decision.
They heard that the teenager took the weapon to the school every day. On the day of the attack, she took out her father’s multifunctional knife from her pocket and first attacked Fiona Elias.
The defendant was originally scheduled to be sentenced on April 28.
The student witnesses said that the girl told them that she would stab Ms. Erias and “do something stupid”, which would be expelled from her.
The teenager shouted “I want to kill you” before the jury stabbed Ms. Erias, and then turned to Liz Hopkin she didn’t know.
Ms. Hopkin and Ms. Erica said in an interview with police Thought they would die When they were stabbed.
After being described as “stalemate”, the jury heard that the girl then moved to another part of the school, ran to the students with a knife, and shouted, “I want to kill you.”
Before the teenage girl was restricted by the teacher Darrel Campbell, the students were stabbed and later arrested.
The jury watched the police’s videos of the police. Among them, he could hear the girl’s comment on “becoming a celebrity” and “look at her more” after the attack.
The drawings found in the notebook are also displayed in the group. Among them, she said her teacher was “Mrs. Frogface Elias”, and her stabbing students were “burned, drowning and death”.
The court was informed that the girl was bullied, and since elementary school, he usually hurt herself in school and home.
She accepted her “rude and irresponsible” to Ms. Erica. The court heard that the teacher found a knife in her schoolbag in September 2023, which led to a period of time.
The fourteen -year -old young man told the Swansea Crown Court that she never planned to kill any of the three, nor did she plan to use a knife before that day.
She said, “I think I am sorry”, in court.
The Wales government said: “In any form of violence or abuse of employees in our school, it is completely unacceptable.
“Schools can immediately take permanent action to expel students in any weapon.”
