Repeat Offender Gets 13 Years | Wilmington News
Description
A 47-year-old repeat offender, James Christopher Hinson, just received a staggering 13-year sentence after brutally stabbing and strangling a woman—this wasn’t his first rodeo with her either. He’d just been released from jail days before, and now he’s facing charges of assault with a deadly weapon and intent to kill. Authorities caught him in a high-stakes chase involving drones and K-9 units, finding him hiding under a porch with blood on his hands and a bloody knife in his pocket. With over 20 prior assault convictions dating back to the ‘90s, this case underscores the urgent need to hold violent offenders accountable—especially when they target the same victim again and again.
