Ainsley Lowton, now 18, is on trial for the murder of his father, James Lowton, whom he stabbed three times with a kitchen knife outside their family home. Despite claims of self-defense, evidence suggests James Lowton was attempting to reconcile with his son.
A 17-year-old boy named Ainsley Lowton is standing trial for the murder of his father, James Lowton , whom he stabbed outside their family home in Tibshelf, Derbyshire . At the time of the incident, the teenager claimed he was acting in self-defense. However, evidence suggests that James Lowton , a 44-year-old shopkeeper and father of six, had no intention of fighting but was trying to mend his relationship with his son.
Neighbors attempted to save James after witnessing the attack but their efforts were unsuccessful. Ainsley Lowton later admitted that he would rather watch his father die than administer first aid. The judge lifted the ban on publishing the teenager's name after he turned 18
