Hi and welcome to this Video Production News court and sentencing report:Hi and welcome to this Video Production News court and sentencing report:

Four teenage gang members have been sentenced to a combined total of over 77 years in prison following their convictions for attempted murder. The incident, which took place at Hackney Central railway station, saw the young men engage in a brutal attack that left a 20-year-old man fighting for his life. The sentencing took place at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Wednesday, August 7, after the group had been found guilty on May 22.

The four individuals involved, all from Hackney, include Elisandro Pinto Alves, aged 18; Hanzell Greenaway, aged 18; Jaheim Thomas, aged 18; and Marvin Edokpolo, aged 19. Each has been handed down significant sentences due to the gravity of their crimes.

Elisandro Pinto Alves, residing on Overbury Street, Hackney, was convicted of attempted murder, possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, two counts of possession of a pointed/bladed article in a public place, and violent disorder. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison.

Hanzell Greenaway, of Munro Way, Hackney, was also convicted of attempted murder, possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, two counts of possession of a pointed/bladed article in a public place, and violent disorder. His sentence amounted to 19 years.

Jaheim Thomas, from Cassland Road, Hackney, received a similar set of convictions for attempted murder, possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, two counts of possession of a pointed/bladed article in a public place, and violent disorder. He was likewise sentenced to 19 years.

Marvin Edokpolo, aged 19, from Dalston Lane, Hackney, faced the most severe sentencing. He was convicted solely of attempted murder and was handed a prison sentence of 22 years and three months.

According to the court proceedings, the attack took place on March 1, 2023, at approximately 1:10 pm. The victim, a 20-year-old man, was on a train heading toward Hackney when Edokpolo, also on the train, identified him and notified Greenaway. At the time, Greenaway was with Thomas and Pinto Alves in a nearby McDonald’s. The three left the fast-food restaurant and proceeded to Hackney Central station, where they sought out their victim.

Upon arriving at the station, the victim was aware of the approaching threat and armed himself with a knife. As the group closed in, Greenaway initiated the assault, slashing at the victim with his own knife. As the attack unfolded, the lift doors opened on the ground level, revealing a 64-year-old woman who had been traveling down from the overbridge. The victim retreated into the lift, attempting to shield himself as the woman tried to avoid the violent altercation.

The victim was stabbed multiple times during the attack, and despite his efforts to push Greenaway out of the lift, he was further assaulted as Pinto Alves slashed at him with a knife, and Thomas fired a gun into the lift, striking the victim in the leg. The entire incident was captured on CCTV.

After the attack, the three attackers fled the scene on bicycles. Armed officers from the British Transport Police arrived within minutes, followed closely by paramedics from the London Ambulance Service. The victim sustained life-threatening injuries, including severe lacerations and a gunshot wound to his leg, and required emergency treatment both at the scene and on the way to the hospital. Miraculously, the woman in the lift was not physically harmed.

The investigation that followed was extensive. Significant evidence was gathered from the scene, including a knife, a phone charger and cable, blood samples, a bullet, and a bullet casing. Law enforcement agencies utilized CCTV footage, mobile phone data, and vehicle tracking to trace the movements of the attackers across London, Dunstable, and Folkestone.

On March 3, a vehicle suspected of carrying Greenaway and Thomas was tracked down by Metropolitan Police officers in London. The vehicle was stopped, and inside were five individuals, including Greenaway, Thomas, and Pinto Alves. A live firearm was discovered beneath the vehicle, which was later confirmed to be the weapon used in the attack. Edokpolo was subsequently arrested on March 7.

During the court proceedings, it was revealed that after the attack, the group had celebrated by filming themselves dancing and rapping while brandishing weapons, including a samurai-style sword. This video was discovered on one of the attackers’ phones and further demonstrated their lack of remorse and the premeditated nature of the violence.

Senior investigating officer Detective Inspector Paul Attwell, who led the case, described the attack as “shocking” and noted that it was fortunate not to have resulted in fatalities, not only for the intended victim but also for the innocent bystander in the lift. He praised the efforts of the British Transport Police in conducting a highly complex investigation that ultimately brought the perpetrators to justice.

The judge ordered that each of the men serve two-thirds of their sentences in custody, with the remainder to be served on license. This case highlights the severe consequences of gang violence and the determination of law enforcement to protect the public and bring dangerous individuals to justice.

Well, that’s all for now. But until our next article, please stay tuned, stay informed, but most of all stay safe, and I’ll see you then.Well, that’s all for now. But until our next article, please stay tuned, stay informed, but most of all stay safe, and I’ll see you then.
