The family of a teen "hunted down" and stabbed to death by a "lynch mob" say he was the victim of racism as his killer is sentenced.
Dea-John Reid, 14, was chased by thugs hurling "disgusting" racial abuse like "black b*****d" in "revenge" for an earlier incident involving the lad's group of friends, Birmingham Crown Court heard.
BirminghamLive reports the “n word” was also used during the May 2021 attack, according to Dea-John's mother Joan Reid who gave a statement to the court.
