- Hello and welcome to The Northern Echo's live blog at Newcastle Crown Court.
- We will be bringing you live updates of the sentencing of the teenage killers of 18-year-old Jack Woodley, who was attacked before being stabbed to death.
- Ten youths were convicted of the murder of Mr Woodley, arising from the attack as he and his girlfriend left Houghton Feast fun fair in Houghton-le-Spring, on the night of Saturday, October 16, last year.
- The court has heard how Woodley was cajoled, surrounded and ultimately attacked, with punches and kicks raining in on him before being stabbed twice by a Rambo-syle 25cm knife.
- Mr Woodley died in hospital the following night from injuries suffered in the attack, principally the two stab wounds inflicted by a 15-year-old defendant.
