Hitler-obsessed teen who stabbed her teacher was considered for anti-terror programme
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"A report has revealed a teenager, who later stabbed three people at her school, had been considered for Prevent due to her interest in Adolf Hitler. The 13-year-old harboured a curiosity for war memorabilia and the Nazi dictator, a fascination with weapons, and claimed to speak German and Russian. After she was found with a knife at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman in Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, a referral to the government's anti-terror scheme was discussed but not pursued."
Coverage spans reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech, including investigations into Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and the documentary 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. The outlet avoids paywalls and seeks donations to fund reporters on the ground and to present both sides of stories. A report revealed a 13-year-old with an interest in Adolf Hitler, war memorabilia and weapons was considered for Prevent but was not referred after being found with a knife. The girl later armed herself with her father's multi-tool and stabbed teachers Fiona Elias and Liz Hopkin and a pupil, saying she expected media attention. She was sentenced at Swansea Crown Court to 15 years' detention after being found guilty of three charges of attempted murder. A multi-agency report was commissioned by Carmarthenshire County Council.
