Her final journey

[MTVN]

I wonder if the judge will name the murderers, they've done that before when the crime is particularly horrific

[Ammi]

Outside court, Brianna’s mother, Esther Ghey, said she was glad the two would spend many years in prison.

She said: “Prior to the trial, I have had moments where I felt sorry for the defendants because they have ruined their own lives as well as ours.

“But now, knowing the true nature of the two and seeing neither display an ounce of remorse for what they have done to Brianna, I have lost any sympathy that I previously had for them, and I am glad that they will spend many years in prison and away from society.”

Detective Chief Superintendent Mike Evans, head of crime at Cheshire Police, said: “I’m not sure fun is the word, but I think they killed her because they wanted to prove that they could, or that sort of thirst for killing. I don’t think there was any motive behind it so possibly, fun? Enjoyment is the right word.”

Mr Evans also branded the killers arrogant believing they would not be caught as girl X claimed the local police were “shite”.

when are they being sentenced?

[Ammi]

When will Brianna Ghey’s killers be sentenced and will they be named?

NOW that two youths have been convicted of murdering Brianna Ghey, attention will turn to sentencing.

The pair, both aged 16, but aged 15 at the time of the killing, are still the subject of reporting restrictions due to their age, preventing them from being named.

They have been refereed to during coverage of the trial as girl X, from Warrington, and boy Y, from Leigh.

Both denied a charge of murdering Brianna Ghey, a 16-year-old transgender schoolgirl from Birchwood, but were found guilty.

The verdicts came after a four-week trial, and after four hours and 40 minutes of deliberations by a jury of seven men and five women.

Trial judge Justice Amanda Yip is due to preside over a hearing tomorrow morning, Thursday, in which reporting restrictions will be mentioned.

The hearing will also discuss any potential sentence date, expected to be next year.

Following the verdicts, after the court hearing was reconvened, legal representatives for both defendants asked for time for the preparation of psychologists’ reports before they are sentenced.

Justice Yip agreed but added: “Frankly, I don’t expect them to make a huge difference to the outcome in sentencing.

“But, given their ages and the unusual circumstances of the case, I think it is right I have all the information available.

“I’m very conscious that no doubt the family of Brianna would want this case to be concluded as soon as possible.”

Deanna Heer, prosecuting, said Brianna’s mother, Esther, would like to read her victim impact statement before the sentencing hearing.

She added: “They understand the court wants the further assistance of medical reports.”

A sentencing date has yet to be confirmed.

Mrs Justice Yip said she will deal with an application by the media to be allowed to publish the names of the defendants at the hearing tomorrow morning, and proceedings were adjourned until then.

I don't think there was ever a doubt they'd be found guilty, what will be interesting to see is how much time they'll get. They sound like complete psychopaths

I must thank Cherie
for making the effort to get the Text off that paper.
I find the ads terrible
like on the Mirror site

They are going to name them when they are sentenced in February

[Cherie]

Honestly I dont get the reason for naming them at all

Yes the Lady Judge
knows why.

[MTVN]

It does seem a bit like indulging morbid fascination but I guess you could say they don't deserve anonymity and it might also mean that lessons can be learned if more details are available to the public etc

[bots]

they need to name them so that they can be tracked when they are inevitably released in a few years time. In a similar way to Venables

[Ammi]

…this article suggests a big factor as being the internet/technology age we now live in and anonymity being something that has become very difficult because with modern technology, many people will already know and it’s become very difficult to ‘police’….

…interesting though…that led me to another article of two adult paedophiles who were given anonymity because it was felt that they may harm themselves if it wasn’t given…I’m sure the law is simple for those who practise and understand it but it feels often filled with complications and exceptions…

good point

[Ammi]

…I think the sentencing for Brianna’s killers is today and they’ll both be named when sentenced…

[bots]

all it takes is for an mp to name them in parliament and that's it. There is no stopping a name coming out if there is a will to do so

[bots]

They are Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe, both 16

Just heard the sentences.

20 years for him, 22 years for her.

NOT LONG ENOUGH. The Lefty Judge saying when you come out. WTF.

They'll only be mid 30s when considered for release. Madness.

BOTH should have got at least 40 years each.
