A teenager who planned to rob schoolchildren before a young boy was stabbed appeared to have starred in two Liverpool films.
Sonny Collins previously appeared before the court with Micky Teany after they planned to rob vulnerable children, before stabbing a schoolboy in a churchyard. The now-19-year-olds sent text messages to each other on February 23, 2022 where they planned to "target vulnerable schoolchildren as they were leaving school".
In the messages, the pair said they would "get something nice" and "catch a few on their way home". Liverpool Crown Court heard last week how on March 8 last year, both boys, then 18, caught the train to Formby carrying knives.
