Plastic Surgeon Found Guilty of Attempted Murder in Attack on Colleague

Jonathan Peter Brooks was convicted of multiple charges for a premeditated attack on Graeme Perks, driven by professional revenge.

Jonathan Peter Brooks, 61, was found guilty of attempted murder, attempted arson with intent to endanger life, and possession of a knife.
Brooks broke into Graeme Perks' Nottingham home in January 2021, armed with petrol, matches, and a knife, intending to kill him.
The attack was motivated by Brooks' resentment over Perks' testimony in disciplinary hearings against him.
Perks sustained life-threatening injuries, with a 95% chance of dying, but survived after emergency surgery at Queen’s Medical Centre.
Brooks' erratic behavior during the trial included a hunger strike, refusal to attend proceedings, and dismissal of his legal counsel.
