"Palmer carried out a cowardly and vicious attack on Joao Esteves, who had done nothing to provoke him.
He refused to answer questions about the attack but we were able to prove with CCTV, DNA evidence and witnesses that he caused Mr Esteves terrible injuries.
Palmer later claimed that he had only acted in self defence, despite the fact that he assaulted Mr Esteves at two different locations.
He even took photographs and filmed his victim after he had carried out the attack that he sent to friends almost as a trophy, as if to brag about what he had done.
Mr Esteves was an innocent visitor to Sussex who had the misfortune to come across a violent thug who took his life."
