Asylum Seeker Sentenced to Life for 23‑Stab Murder in Walsall
Deng Chol Majek receives life sentence for stabbing hotel worker 23 times in 2024 Walsall tragedy.
In October 2024, 26‑year‑old Deng Chol Majek stabbed 27‑year‑old hotel worker Rhiannon Skye Whyte 23 times at the Park Inn Hotel in Walsall, then fled to Bescot Stadium station. CCTV captured the escape and Majek’s later blood‑stained dancing and laughing an hour after the attack. He was caught, faced trial at Coventry Crown Court and was found guilty of murder on 30 January 2026. Judge Michael Soole handed a minimum 29‑year sentence – effectively life – and stated Majek was 26 at the time of the murder. Majek, a Sudanese asylum seeker, is believed to have arrived in the UK by small boat months earlier.
