Un homme du Minnesota condamné à 11 ans de prison pour avoir poignardé ses parents

Travis Lester a écopé d'une peine de 11 ans de prison après avoir plaidé coupable d'avoir poignardé ses deux parents à leur domicile de Champlin en septembre dernier.

Lester, âgé de 40 ans, a plaidé coupable de tentative de meurtre au second degré en avril. Le 8 mai, il a été condamné à 11 ans de réclusion, avec déduction des 245 jours déjà effectués en détention préventive. L'agression s'est produite dans la soirée du 5 septembre 2025, lorsque la police a répondu à un appel d'urgence provenant du domicile familial. Le père de Lester a expliqué aux agents que son fils l'avait poignardé, lui et son épouse, alors qu'il était dans une rage induite par la drogue. Les deux parents ont subi de multiples coups de couteau mais ont survécu après avoir été transportés d'urgence à l'hôpital dans un état critique. Lester a plus tard avoué qu'il avait songé à l'attaque pendant un jour ou deux, affirmant qu'il ne voulait pas passer à l'acte. Les policiers ont retrouvé un couteau de cuisine et de la méthamphétamine dans sa voiture lorsqu'ils l'ont interpellé peu après.
