“We hope in time and after some treatment the family will get some answers as to how and why these offenses came to happen,” Danyal Hussein’s attorney said.
A 19-year-old British man on Thursday was sentenced to at least 35 years in prison after murdering two sisters, believing the killings would help him win the lottery, the Associated Press reported. Danyal Hussein stabbed sisters Nicole Smallman,27, and Bibaa Henry,46, who were in Fryent Country Park in London in June of 2020 for a birthday party. Hussein did not know the victims but was believed to be obsessed with demons, and promised to kill six women every six months in order to win the Mega Millions Super Jackpot lottery. Prosecutors said Hussein signed a pact in his blood with a mythical figure he called King Lucifuge Rofocale, and Hussein’s DNA was found on a knife dropped in the grass. Hussein denied the crimes and his attorney, Riel Karmy-Jones, did not ask for a delay in the sentencing. “We hope in time and after some treatment the family will get some answers as to how and why these offenses came to happen,” Jones said.
