Keahn Williams and Kai Nelson-Palmer were sentenced to life in prison for the murder of Lucas Sutton, who was fatally stabbed in a premeditated attack in Croydon. Their plot involved luring Sutton under false pretenses, leading to a violent confrontation that left him dead after he sought help in a nearby pub. The motivations stemmed from perceived betrayal over a firearm he had possessed. The case shed light on the dangers posed by manipulated friendships and premeditated violence among youths in London.
The evidence gathered and presented to the jury built up a clear picture of a plot to lure Lucas to an address in Croydon, act as if nothing was wrong, and then violently attack him.
Lucas and one of the defendants had been friends but in the minds of the group, Lucas had crossed them by attempting to get rid of a firearm he had been holding onto.
