A teenager is jailed for almost four years after making threats to bomb Stafford College. Court heard that Jagger Strang was 17 at the time of the offences and told other pupils that he planned to carry out an attack using a pressure-cooker bomb. BBC reports the threat involved idolising serial killers, including the Sandy Hook shooter, while other accounts say Strang made comments to several students about his supposed plans. The case comes after prosecutors said he discussed the threat with three other pupils. The court ultimately imposed a custodial sentence of nearly four years, reflecting the seriousness of the threat and the impact on the college community. The reporting describes Strang as having held or expressed interests in mass violence and serial killers, but details of his broader intentions and any immediate operational steps are not set out in the excerpts provided. Strang’s sentence is reported as lasting almost four years.
