A Fall River man will serve up to four decades in state prison for stabbing a woman 22 times, leaving her so disfigured she lost an eye.

Derrell Hampton, 33, of Fall River on Sept. 4 pleaded guilty to charges including attempted murder, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon causing seriously bodily injury and mayhem, in the case of a stabbing on Jan. 21, 2021.

According to the Bristol County District Attorney’s Office, on the night of the attack, the victim and Hampton arranged to meet in the parking lot of the former Sam’s Club warehouse on Brayton Avenue.

Around 8 p.m., surveillance footage from the area showed a man arriving on foot and entering the victim’s car. The DA’s office said the victim's vehicle then drives, suddenly stops, then drives in circles before coming to a stop. Footage shows that at 8:14 p.m., the man fled on foot toward Quequechan Street.
