A consultant psychiatrist was murdered in a homophobic attack carried out by two men and a teenage girl. They were targeting gay men to rob in Bute Park, Cardiff in the early hours of 20 July last year.
It was there that Dr Gary Jenkins, 54, was brutally beaten, kicked and punched to death. Audio of the horrendous attack, carried out by Jason Edwards, 25, Lee Strickland, 36, and Dionne Timms-Williams, 17, depicted Dr Jenkins pleading for help and for his attacks to “Leave me alone” but his cries were left unheeded.
