Possibly one of the saddest stories ever: that little bairn being murdered. The thought of him lying there alone, bleeding to death, probably just wanting his mother is just too horrible. RIP, little one.

Awful. I heard a woman on the radio yesterday, I think she was a social worker from that area and she was saying that kids often stab each other in the legs in a bullying way and don't realise the consequences of their actions.

Something is majorly wrong there.

Also, the fact that his family had come over to give him a beter chance in life... Did you see the photos of where they lived? Graffiti and urine marks on the wall. And yet he was delighted to be here - dead proud of his new school sweatshirt and rushing off to the computer club after lessons. The photos of him playing footy back home in Nigeria were heartbreaking, too. All that snuffed out.
