A gang of boys who stabbed a teenager to death with a Rambo-style knife can today be named and pictured for the first time.
Jack Woodley was 18 when he was murdered by the ten young killers, who were aged from 14-17 at the time of the sickening attack in Sunderland in October 2021.
Judge Rodney Jameson made reporting restrictions banning the identity of each killer being published until they reached the age of 18.
The youngest of the ten, Lewis Rose, became an adult yesterday. The identities of Tyler Brewis, 18, and Rhys Wear, 18, have also now been revealed.
Jack was 'surrounded and isolated' by the mob - all strangers to him - and stabbed in the back 'like zombies attacking an animal', after they followed him from a funfair and chased him down an alleyway in Houghton le Spring.
They punched, kicked, stamped on and fatally stabbed Jack with a 25cm blade 'solely for the excitement and pleasure of inflicting serious injury on an entirely innocent and randomly selected stranger'.
The sickening onslaught, which was recorded on a mobile phone, saw the attackers form a ring around defenceless Jack, making it impossible for his friends to help him.
The teenager, from Newton Aycliffe in County Durham, was taken to hospital but he passed away the next day.
The boys were convicted of murdering Jack following a long trial at Newcastle Crown Court. They were all handed life sentences, with minimum terms of between eight and 17 years’ detention and a total of 124 years between them.
English youths can be sk scary honestly.
