The 61-year-old, who is a consultant surgeon with a specialisation in burns and plastics, “hated” Mr Perks and wanted him “out of the way.
He had been the subject of disciplinary proceedings before the horror, with statements from Mr Perks forming part of the evidence.
Brooks has now been jailed for for life with a minimum term of 22 years after he was found guilty of two counts of attempted murder, attempted arson with intent to endanger life and possession of a knife.
He was “voluntarily absent” from his month-long trial because he was on hunger strike and said he would “rather be dead than incarcerated”.
