Twelve years in jail for teen who boasted of killing

The judge appeared to be choked with emotion as he told Leighton Amies, 15, that he ended the life of a "beautiful, exceptional and gifted" boy when he plunged a kitchen knife into Tomasz Oleszak's chest.

Amies attacked Tomasz, 14, at a beauty spot last year. Passing a life sentence with a minimum 12-year term at Newcastle Crown Court, Mr Justice Martin Spencer said Amies "relished" carrying the murder knife.

Triumphantly

He said when Amies shouted at a group of youths, "I've wetted your boy", it was done "triumphantly".
