A mental health nurse has told how she almost died when a hospital patient tried to murder her - by strangling her with the drawstring from his HOODIE. <br /><br />Kieffer Sutton, 25, throttled mum-of-three Kazeema Asfal, 37, until she blacked out at Heath Lane Hospital, in West Bromwich, West Mids. <br /><br />She described how he told her 'It'll be fun seeing you die you, you b***h. It's time for you to suffer your death" before other members of staff came to her rescue.<br /><br />Sutton was given a life sentence with a minimum 13 years term on Thursday (23/5) after being found guilty of attempted murder at Wolverhampton Crown Court. <br /><br />The court heard he had a shocking previous record of violently attacking nurses, hospital patients and members of the public over a 10 year period. <br /><br />Sutton - who was born a woman but now identifies as a man - had committed 46 counts of actual or threatened violence, almost all of which were carried out on members of healthcare staff.<br /><br />But Kazeema said she was not made aware of Sutton's background who had been on the unit for a year before he tried to strangle her on July 2 last year. <br /><br />He had pretended to need the toilet to get her alone before wrapping the cord around her neck and tightening his grip.
