The mum of Connor Brown has expressed her agony after the man who helped kill her son has seen his licence period end.
Connor was just 18 years old when he was killed in February 2019 while trying to protect others from thug Leighton Barrass who had pulled out a knife during an argument. Tragically, Connor was fatally stabbed in an alleyway near Sunderland's Gatsby's pub.
While Barrass, then 20, was found guilty of murder, his accomplice, Ally Gordon, walked away with convictions for manslaughter and for possessing a bladed weapon. Gordon, who was also 20 at the time of the incident, helped in Barrass' brutal attack on Connor, stamping on and kicking him.
