Man Jailed for Life for Murdering Man with Car

0:00On April 10th, a man named Michael Povey just got hit with a life sentence for murdering 28-year-old Lee Baker by deliberately driving his car into him. This happened on July 21st, 2025, on Orm's Cliff Road in Red Null. Povey pleaded guilty to messing with justice too, and the judge said a minimum of 20 years before parole at Birmingham Crown Court last Friday. Povey mounted the pavement, slammed into Baker causing fatal head injuries, while Baker's brother barely dodged out of the way. After the crash, Povey smashed into a front wall and bolted from the scene to dodge cops. Baker was a beloved son, father, and brother, leaving his family heartbroken. They shared how much they miss him, and wished they could hold him one more time, knowing he's gone forever. West Midlands Police called it a callous act, using a car as a weapon. Detectives unravel Povey's whole story of lies. He called 999 claiming his car got stolen by some yob, and stuck to that even on body

1:00cam footage. But CCTV caught him later, bragging to someone that he rammed them with his car. This conviction brings some justice after a solid investigation exposed the truth. Povey's behind bars now, facing the weight of taking a good man's life.
