Emma Jayne Magson is Jailed For Life: A girl who murdered her boyfriend in Britain’s Leicester has been sentenced to life imprisonment. Emma-Jayne Magson, 28, was attacked and murdered by her 26-year-old boyfriend James Knight with a knife. This incident is from March 2016. She was also found guilty in a second hearing in the case, after which she was sentenced to life imprisonment.
In the initial hearing of the case, he denied the murder and claimed that he had done this for self-defense. He also said that Knight was intoxicated by alcohol or drugs. But a year later, she was found guilty and sentenced to a minimum of 17 years. Today, Emma is sentenced to life imprisonment by Birmingham Crown Court and will have to spend at least 17 years in prison.
Trial again
This sentence has been heard after a trial on the appeal of the court once again. The case is heard for the second time by Birmingham Crown Court, where judges have once again found Emma guilty of killing Knight. The case was heard again at a time when women had come in support of it. These women say that Emma is a victim of domestic violence, so she did what she did to protect herself (Emma Jayne Magson is Jailed For Life).
The first hearing was over in 2017
Judge Jeremy Baker, while sentencing, told Emma that the date of his conviction would begin in 2017 after the first hearing of the case was over. He said that he could not extend the minimum sentence of 17 years earlier for legal reasons. In January last year, the Court of Appeal ordered the trial to start again on the basis of evidence related to mental illness.
Suffering from this disease
In these evidences, it was said that Emma was battling Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder and due to this, she is not fully responsible in the murder. After this, the second trial of the case was started at Birmingham Crown Court. Where she is once again found guilty in the murder of Knight by a 10-2 decision. The court heard how Emma waited for 45 minutes before attacking the 999 helpline number and attacked her partner.
