Arsonist's Family Terror: Jury's Verdict

Arsonist's Family Terror: Jury's Verdict

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

Karl Poxon, a fifty-year-old with severe mental health issues, was found guilty of arson and dangerous driving by a jury at Leicester Crown Court. On November 21, 2021, he set fire to his own house with his three children inside, then targeted his brothers and sisters homes. Despite families escaping with minor injuries, the incident left them traumatized. Poxon, who fled the scene, was later arrested after a police chase. The judge described the case as a result of Poxons psychosis and delusions. Sentencing is set for June 18, with the hope that treatment will help turn the page on this tragic event.
