Brianna Ghey's killers have been given life sentences for her "brutal, planned and sadistic" murder.
Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe murdered the 16-year-old in a park in Cheshire in February 2023.
Mrs Justice Yip said Jenkinson was motivated by a "deep desire to kill" while Ratcliffe's motivation was in part hostility to Brianna's transgender identity.

the Daily Mail podcast on this one is worth a listen. Just hard to reconcile two 15 year olds doing this and the conversations they were having in the lead up.

I watched that documentary, it was chilling to say the least.

The personalities and dynamic of the two killers Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe somewhat reminded me of Jill Roberts and Charlie Walker, the two teenage murderers in the 2011 crime/horror film 'Scream 4'.
