Three teen thugs who murdered 'the wrong man' after hijacking a dispute which had nothing to do with them were today (Tuesday) handed life sentences.
Kane Adamson, 18, Joshua Prescott, 19, and Ben Dawber, 17, were hunting down a man who had just punched someone outside a bar in Tyldesley but then launched a sickening knife attack on the wrong person.
Thomas Williamson, 30, a man with mental health problems who was out for a walk to clear his head at the time, suffered a series of fatal stab wounds, including one that penetrated his heart and lung. He died at the scene. He was entirely innocent.
