On the 17th of October 2013, 15-year-old Lee Adams set off to the local store to buy a loaf of bread.
When he didn’t return home and then, a horrific discovery was made in a local abandoned school, the Adams family was about to thrust into a torrent of grief and devastation.
Fifteen-year-old Lee Adams was stabbed numerous times, strangled and finally decapitated at an abandoned primary school in October 2013. The killer, Aljar Swartz planned to sell the head to a sangoma (traditional healer) for R5,000.
Western Cape High Court Judge Elize Steyn described Swartz as a “heartless individual” who had shown no remorse or compassion but instead “knew what he was doing and enjoyed it”.
