A British teenager has been ordered to serve a minimum of 52 years in prison for killing three young girls in a frenzied stabbing spree at a Taylor Swift-themed dance event in the town of Southport last year. The judge says the objective of then-17 year old Axel Rudakubana was “mass murder”, and that if he had not been stopped, he would have killed all 26 children present. CNA’s Stuart Smith reports.
