Two 12-year-old boys have been found guilty of stabbing a stranger to death with a machete in a park in Wolverhampton. Throughout the trial both boys sought to blame one and other for the murder of Shawn Seesahai.
This is the haunting photo of a 12-year-old killer posing with a 16-inch machete tucked into his trousers on the day he hacked teenager Shawn Seesahai to death.
In the group call log, recovered by police, the suspects are told that 'everyone' is talking about the murder the previous night. The boys – who were allowed to play with fidget-spinner toys while giving evidence – are expected to be sentenced next month. The shocking clip comes as the 19-year-old's father Suresh warned that 'kids are dangerous now' in the wake of the two attackers, both 12, being found guilty this afternoon

He said: 'He was always with me, from the time he was born and growing up. When he'd have been around 16 he started to work with me. Whatsoever he knew that I'd need help he'd always be there for me.' The victim's friend told the trial he was forced to run for his life, but 19-year-old Mr Seesahai stumbled as he tried to flee from the boys on Wolverhampton's Stowlawn playing fields on November 13 last year.
He settled in Handsworth, Birmingham, and jurors heard the pair travelled to Wolverhampton that November evening with a third man, Jamal Clarke, because Mr Clarke wanted to visit his girlfriend in the city. The stabbing victim's father Suresh told Sky News earlier that parents need to 'pay attention' to stop more senseless murders, adding that 'kids are dangerous now'
The defendants said the confrontation began when Mr Seesahai told them to move from the park bench they were sat on, then got the boy who owned the knife in a headlock. Mr Seesahai had flown to Britain from the British Overseas Territory of Anguilla for medical treatment on his eyes, when he was set upon by the boys
The couple said they 'couldn't eat for a week' through shock after first Shawn's friend phoned to tell them he had been murdered, before police followed up to confirm any parents' worst news 30 minutes later.'It's very hard for his sister because they always spoke to each other', Mr Seesahai said. 'After he passed away we were on the porch, she started crying and said 'Mummy I have no brother it's just me, alone'.
