Fox News
Matthew King, 19, was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of six years after a planned terror attack on British Army barracks was reported by his mother.
"She took the very bold step of alerting Prevent when she had concerns for her son," Judge Mark Lucraft said during sentencing at the Old Bailey, the central criminal court in central London. "That cannot have been an easy thing to do in the first place, and in my view she absolutely did the right thing."
In January, King pleaded guilty to the preparation of terror acts between Dec. 22, 2021 and May 17, 2022.
