Tyrese Osei-Kofi, a 24-year-old resident of East Dulwich in south-east London, has appeared in court on charges related to the death of Jamel Boyce. Boyce, who was fatally stabbed outside a Sainsbury’s in Clapham, south London, in October 2016, died six years later as a result of the attack.
The Old Bailey heard that the stabbing incident caused Boyce to suffer a cardiac arrest, leading to severe brain damage. The sustained injuries left him blind, paralyzed, and unable to communicate. Tragically, he passed away in a care home at the age of 22 in February 2022.
