dec 20, 2023 - 2 Teenagers Convicted of Murdering Brianna Ghey

Description:

A boy and a girl who had a fascination with violence and torture have been found guilty of murdering Brianna Ghey.

The 16-year-old, who was transgender, was stabbed 28 times in a "ferocious" attack in a park in Cheshire.

Girl X and boy Y, who cannot be named due to their age, had blamed each other for the killing but were convicted of her murder at Manchester Crown Court.

Brianna's mother Esther said the pair had not shown "an ounce of remorse" and she had "lost all sympathy" for them.

"To know how scared my usually fearless child must have been when she was alone in that park with someone that she called her friend will haunt me forever," she said, as her voice broke with emotion.
