A 'sadistic' killer who tortured two students has demanded up to £10,000 in human rights compensation after claiming he suffered 'mental trauma' when prison staff broke his Xbox console. Nigel Farmer, 49, killed two French students after stabbing them 244 times in an 'orgy of bloodletting' in 2008. But Farmer, who is imprisoned at Full Sutton Prison in York, has launched a claim to receive damages for up to £10,000 after he suffered 'mental trauma' when prison officers broke his console. He said officers broke his Xbox during a routine search in January and sued for damages at Central London County Court, according to The Sun. In the middle of the violence, he rang his friend Bernie Sonnex - brother of Dano - to boast of the crime.
