The killer of a schoolboy who was followed home and stabbed to death is being urged to 'clear their conscience' - six months on from the tragedy. Ten teenagers - now between the ages of 13 and 18 - remain under investigation following the death of Kennie Carter, 16, in Stretford on Saturday, January 22.
Police have spoken to more than 80 people since that day, trawled 100 hours of CCTV footage and executed more than 20 warrants. A total of 14 youths have been arrested during the course of the investigation - but a charge is still yet to be made.
Now, on the eve of the six-month anniversary of Kennie's death, detectives are again urging anyone who knows what happened to come forward - so his family can finally begin to get closure. Detective Chief Inspector Alicia Smith, from Greater Manchester Police’s Major Incident Team, said: "I can't even begin to think what they're actually going through. It's been a really, really difficult time for them and for the investigation."
