The boy, who was 14 at the time of the offences and remains unnamed due to legal protections, admitted guilt to three charges at Bath Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, April 23. Between April 30 and July 11 last year, he made repeated threats that caused a teacher to fear violence, including rape, paralysis, and the release of intimate deepfake images.
