Axel Rudakubana: from unassuming' schoolboy to Southport killer
Briefly

Axel Rudakubana's transition into teenage years marked a decline in his behavior, ignited by racial bullying. He reached out to Childline, confessing violent thoughts and admitting to carrying a knife to school. This distressing call signified his need for support, but led to his expulsion from mainstream education and an increasingly violent obsession. Despite multiple attempts to reintegrate into different schools, his violent tendencies grew, culminating in a tragic act of violence when he reached adulthood. He was sentenced to a minimum of 52 years in prison, the longest for someone his age in UK history.
Within a month of the new term, Axel complained of being racially bullied, and soon began to act out in class and storm out.
