More than 280 people in England and Wales lost their lives to homicide
with a bladed instrumentmostly knivesbetween April 2021 and March
2022, the highest number since records began in 1946, according to a
report by the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
The number of homicides rose by 19 percent, to 282, over the previous
year. The increase included an 18 percent rise in the deaths of young
men, with the number of male victims aged 16 to 17 years jumping to 24
from 10.
One of those teenage victims was Levi Ernest-Morrison, 17, who was
stabbed to death in the Sydenham district in London, after being chased
by a gang armed with knives and a machete.
Alex Sprules, 17, was jailed for life for murder; Tyreese Ulysses, 19,
was sentenced to 13 years for manslaughter; and Ulyssess mother,
Nichola Leighton, 36, also was jailed for life for murder. During trial, >jurors heard that Leighton was outraged by Ernest-Morrison and his
friends banging on her front door looking for Ulysses; she then drove
him and Sprules to hunt down the group.

increase of 36 compared with the previous yearand 59 were black,
including almost 50 percent of whom were aged 16 to 24.
Black people had higher rates of victimisation, the ONS said. The
average rates per million population were around four times higher for
black victims than white victims or victims of other ethnicities, it said.
The report did not analyse the ethnicity of perpetrators, as many of the >homicide cases have not yet come to court.
The ONS report pointed out that knives and machetes were used in 75
percent of teenage murders compared with just 40 percent of adult homicides.
Patrick Green, chief executive of the Ben Kinsella Trust, an anti-knife
crime charity, blamed the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdowns for making >young people feel more vulnerable.
Green said: As we emerged from COVID restrictions and those
restrictions were lifted, we were seeing more evidence of young people
made more vulnerable by COVID. Gangs are particularly good at picking up
on vulnerabilities, are quick to pick them up and indeed lure young
people and exploit them in criminal acts. We think there could be a link >there.
Green said he had carried out education workshops in London and
Nottingham and had seen a notable difference in interactions with
young people after the pandemic.
Some Feel Less Secure in Their Community Spaces
Some feel less secure in their community spaces, more worried, he
said. We know that fear is a factor in terms of carrying a knife.
Its one of the motivations. They feel safe carrying a knife and that >alleviates the fear.
Green said there are a range of drivers for knife crime that reach deep
into our society.
Weve got to not only tackle drugs and gangs, weve also got to tackle >school exclusions, weve also got to tackle mental health provisions for >young people, he said.
Bruce Houlder, founder of Fighting Knife Crime London, said the rise in
male teenage knife victims is highly disturbing.
The long-term failure of all governments in the last few decades to get
to grips with social deprivation and the loss of hope among many young
people needs to be heeded. As a nation, we need to be ashamed that it
has come to this, he said.
In March 2022 Tyler Hurley, 16, was stabbed to death with a zombie knife
on a bus in Chadwell Heath, east London.
His killer, Carlton Tanueh, 18, was jailed for life for murder. The
trial heard that Hurley and his friends had uploaded a music video to
YouTube mocking a number of Tanuehs friends.
Homicides, knife, and gun crime continue to fall in the capital,
bucking the national trend, a spokesman for the mayor of London said. >However, the mayor is clear that one death is one too many and the
level of violence in London remains too high.
Thats why he continues to take action by investing in policing,
expanding neighbourhood policing teams, and investing record amounts in
early prevention and support programmes for young Londoners through
Londons Violence Reduction Unit as we work to build a safer London for >everyone.
The ONS analysed data held by the Home Office Homicide Index, which
contains detailed information about each killing recorded by police in >England and Wales.
It said kicking or hitting accounted for 116 homicides17 percent of
the totaland strangulation or asphyxiation was the cause of 14

There were 28 homicides by shooting, seven fewer than the previous year
and 30 percent lower than a decade ago.
