London: A horrifying incident unfolded at a roller disco when a transgender teen was brutally attacked by a gang. CCTV footage captured the shocking moment they stabbed her multiple times.
The 18-year-old girl was lured to a car park in northwest London, where she was met with violence. The attackers, wearing masks, not only stabbed her but also punched and stamped on her while hurling transphobic insults. This brutal ambush was reportedly planned on Snapchat.
After the attack, the gang boasted about their actions on social media, which is just sickening. The victim, showing incredible courage, asked the police to release the footage to highlight what happened to her.
Summer Betts-Ramsey, one of the attackers, was labeled a “dangerous offender” in court. Along with her accomplices, they were caught bragging about the assault. The court heard that the victim had previously been involved with one of the attackers, which led to the horrific turn of events.
They tricked her into coming to the car park under the guise of an invitation to the roller disco. But as soon as she arrived, they pounced on her, stabbing her over a dozen times. She was rushed to the hospital, and thankfully, she survived.
Betts-Ramsey received a sentence of eight and a half years in youth detention, while the others got three years each. A 17-year-old boy involved was given a youth rehabilitation order, and a girl was sentenced for stealing the victim’s bag during the chaos.
In her impact statement, the victim shared how the attack has changed her life. She struggles to trust people now and feels constantly on edge. Her college attendance has dropped, and she battles nightmares about the assault.
She expressed how the scars from the attack serve as a painful reminder of that night, leaving her feeling like she’s living a life sentence. It’s heartbreaking to think that someone could harbor such hatred and act so violently.
