Lewis Stone was stabbed to death by David Fleet in a random attack in Borth , Wales , in 2019 .

Mr Fleet was sectioned under Mental Health Act after admitting manslaughter with diminished responsibility.

He was suffering from paranoid schizophrenia at the time of the attack and told psychiatrists that if he had not stabbed Mr Stone, the voices in his head "were going to kill him" Mr Fleet's family were informed of the update to his care just hours after Sky News aired their first TV interview calling for an internal NHS Trust report into his case to be released.
