The devastated mum of tragic Jack Woodley has paid tribute to her "cheeky chappy, blue-eyed boy" as the group of teenagers who cruelly murdered him are sentenced.
Zoe McGill has opened up about her "happy-go-lucky" son saying he wanted to make her proud and was due to start a new job at Amazon the Monday after he tragically died. But after he was surrounded and attacked by a group of youths near the Britannia Inn pub on Newbottle Street on October 16, 2021, he never made it to his new job.
Jack had been enjoying a day out with his girlfriend at the Houghton Feast, in Houghton-le-Spring, last year before he was kicked, punched, and stabbed. And now as the 10 teenage killers behind his murder were sentenced to a total 124 year in detention at Newcastle Crown Court, Zoe has paid tribute to Jack saying he would "light up a room".
