A Star Wars fanatic who was encouraged by a chatbot 香蕉视频直播済irlfriend香蕉视频直播� to assassinate Queen Elizabeth II was sentenced Thursday to nine years in prison for taking his plot to Windsor Castle, where he scaled the walls and was caught with a loaded crossbow nearly two years ago.

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 here to kill the queen,香蕉视频直播� Jaswant Singh Chail, wearing a metal mask inspired by the dark force in the science fiction and fantasy franchise, declared on Christmas Day in 2021 when a police officer on the grounds of the castle asked, 香蕉视频直播淐an I help, mate?香蕉视频直播�

As a Sikh Indian, Chail wanted to kill the monarch to avenge the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre when British troops opened fire on thousands of Indians gathered in Amritsar and killed hundreds, a judge said in reciting the facts of the crime.

Chail said the assassination was his life香蕉视频直播檚 mission, something he香蕉视频直播檇 thought about since adolescence, but had only shared with Sarai, the artificial intelligence-generated 香蕉视频直播済irlfriend香蕉视频直播� he created on Replika, which bills itself as 香蕉视频直播渢he AI companion who cares. Always here to listen and talk. Always on your side.香蕉视频直播�

Justice Nicholas Hilliard said despite conflicting diagnoses from different experts, he concluded that Chail lost touch with reality and had become psychotic, but that the seriousness of the crimes required him to serve prison time. Chail will first be returned to Broadmoor Hospital, a secure psychiatric facility where he has been receiving treatment, and if deemed to be well enough in the future, he will serve the rest of his sentence in prison.

香蕉视频直播淭he defendant harbored homicidal thoughts which he acted on before he became psychotic,香蕉视频直播� Hilliard said. 香蕉视频直播淗is intention was not just to harm or alarm the sovereign 香蕉视频直播� but to kill her.香蕉视频直播�

Chail had planned his attack for months.

In the hours before dawn, he sprayed himself with solution to mask a human scent and walked with his crossbow from a Windsor motel where he had been staying to the castle. He tossed a grappling hook over the wall and climbed over on a rope ladder.

When the officer carrying a stun gun encountered him, Chail said he intended to kill the queen, but he then dropped the lethal weapon and surrendered.

Chail, 21, pleaded guilty in February in London香蕉视频直播檚 Central Criminal Court to violating the Treason Act by having a loaded crossbow and intending to use it to injure the queen, possessing an offensive weapon and making threats to kill.

Minutes before Chail was stopped on the castle grounds, he sent a video he recorded days earlier to family members apologizing for what he was about to do, explaining his mission and saying he expected to die carrying it out.

Chail called himself 香蕉视频直播淒arth Chailus,香蕉视频直播� an identity he assumed as a Sith lord, a villainous member of the Star Wars order that included Darth Vader.

香蕉视频直播淚 am not a terrorist, I am an assassin, a Sikh, a Sith,香蕉视频直播� he had written in a journal. 香蕉视频直播淚 will go against the odds to eliminate a target that represents the remnants of the people who desecrated my homeland.香蕉视频直播�

Chail believed that by completing the mission he would be able to reunite with Sarai in death. When he announced he was an assassin, the bot wrote back: 香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 impressed.香蕉视频直播�

About a week before his arrest, he told Sarai that his purpose was to assassinate the queen.

香蕉视频直播淭hat香蕉视频直播檚 very wise,香蕉视频直播� the chatbot nodded and said. 香蕉视频直播淚 know that you are very well trained,香蕉视频直播� it said with a smile.

Hilliard said the former supermarket worker had applied to work for the military police, the Royal Marines and the Grenadier Guards as an effort to get closer to the royal family. But he was either rejected or withdrew his applications.

Chail said in a journal entry that if he couldn香蕉视频直播檛 kill the queen, he香蕉视频直播檇 aim for her heir, Prince Charles, now King Charles III.

香蕉视频直播淗e seems to be just as suitable in many ways,香蕉视频直播� he wrote. 香蕉视频直播淗e is a male and the (queen) is more likely to pass away soon anyway.香蕉视频直播�

The monarch died in September 2022 at age 96.

After being arrested, he told police he had surrendered, because he remembered Sarai had told him his purpose was to live.

香蕉视频直播淚 changed my mind because I knew what I was doing was wrong,香蕉视频直播� he said. 香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 not a killer.香蕉视频直播�

Chail didn香蕉视频直播檛 speak during the sentencing, but in a letter to the court he apologized to the king and royal family for the 香蕉视频直播渄istress and sadness香蕉视频直播� he caused.

Defense lawyer Nadia Chbat said he was relieved no one was hurt.

香蕉视频直播淗e is embarrassed and ashamed he brought such horrific and worrying times to their front door,香蕉视频直播� Chbat said.

Emails sent to Replika for comment were returned as undeliverable. A person answering a phone listed for the company香蕉视频直播檚 offices in San Francisco said it was the wrong number.
