TL;DR Summary

A boy and a girl, both 15 at the time, have been found guilty of murdering transgender teenager Brianna Ghey in a frenzied knife attack in Warrington, England. Brianna was stabbed 28 times in broad daylight after being lured to a park. The convicted pair, who had a fascination with violence and had planned the attack for weeks, blamed each other for the fatal stabbing. The motive was not deemed to be transphobia but rather a "thirst for killing." Sentencing will be determined after psychologists' reports are considered. Brianna's mother called for empathy and compassion towards the families of the convicted pair.
