Justice Amanda Yip lifted the reporting restrictions on naming the killers of 16-year-old Brianna Ghey. They were identified at Manchester Crown Court as Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe.
The horrific murder shocked the nation. Ghey was stabbed with a hunting knife 28 times in her head, neck, chest and back in broad daylight after being lured to a park in the town of Warrington on Feb. 11, 2023.
Yip handed Ratcliffe and Jenkinson a mandatory life sentence, and ordered them to serve a minimum term of 20 and 22 years, respectively, before they could be eligible for parole. If they had been adults — over the age of 18 — they would have faced much longer minimum terms. They will be transferred to adult prisons when they turn 18. Neither showed no visible reaction on being sentenced.
The thing that hit me with sadness most (aside the horrible murder) is that when you see pictures of Brianna, her eyes are full of life and happiness.
And then you see pictures of these two, devoid of any spark. Dead inside.
Thats what conservatism does to people
How…how did you make this about politics… seriously, at 16 kids are not thinking about politics
It’s absolutely sickening. This comment section is using this poor kids murder as a reinforcement to fit their partisan bias. I’m assuming most of these people are terminally online or are living miserable/empty lives, devoid of love. Now watch, they’ll use their internet points to feel vindicated against me, now that I’m probably an evil conservative boogy man in their eyes.
LMFAO… Typical conservative, when the other side does it is all “see this is what they want” but when it’s their side that does is, which is to say 99% of the time someone does something heinous to another human being, it’s all “why are you making this political?” … I don’t know, because conservatives have been trying to exterminate trans people for decades now?? As if anyone but a conservative would kill someone for being trans. What a joke!
This is absolutely political and it’s political specifically because of people like these two.
If you look into it, it looks like it was less political and more obsessive.
Your attempt to deny exactly what conservatism is and it’s effects on society has resulted in complete and utter failure on your part.
Well…those were mugshots taken after their arrests on murder charges… wouldn’t it be even more disturbing if they were smiling and cheerful?
Both apparently showed no sympathy during the trial. Denying they did it and accusing the other.
