Teen denies stabbing Brianna, 16, to death
A GIRL accused of luring teenager Brianna Ghey to a park then killing her said she had an interest in murder and torture, but it was "a fantasy".
Holding a fidget toy to help her anxiety, the 16-year-old, known as Girl X, yesterday began giving evidence to the jury in her murder trial.
She and a 16-year-old friend, Boy Y, deny stabbing Brianna to death in Culcheth Linear Park, near Warrington, Cheshire, last February.
Neither can be named because of their ages. In court, X admitted discussing killing Brianna, 16, below, in phone messages to Y weeks before her death, but said she was "making up a fantasy".
Attractive
She told Manchester Crown Court she became friends with trans teen Brianna last October.
