Connor Huntley is 18 year old (pictured below) was found by medics with a hammer embedded in his skull by his flat mate.
Homophobic 21 year old Joseph Williams attacked him with a hammer as he slept in their 2-bedroom apartment in Kent, UK. After the attack, Williams called 999 and confessed to the horrific attack.
"I don't know how to say this but he's dead in my flat. I hit him on the head with a hammer in his sleep." Williams told the operator
Doctors say Connor is lucky to survive the assault (pic of his x-ray with the hammer in his head), but he now suffers from epilepsy and has been robbed of his independence.
Williams was arrested, charged with attempted murder and has been sentenced to 14 years in prison.
Prosecutors said that Williams was a homophobic who hated that his roommate was gay and a cross dresser and told friends that he would 'end up hurting' his roommate if they continue to live together. And on May 28th 2013, he carried out the attack. At the time, he was suffering from depression and was developing schizophrenia.
Despite his mental inadequacy his punishment is still awaiting for him.
Williams will be locked up in a mental health hospital until he is fit to go to prison.
