Two 13-year-old boys have been sentenced to life imprisonment with minimum terms of eight years and six months for the murder of 19-year-old Shawn Seesahai in Wolverhampton, UK. The pair, who were both 12 at the time of the unprovoked attack in November 2023, are believed to be the youngest knife murderers in the country's history and the youngest convicted murderers since the killers of James Bulger. Seesahai, a stranger to the boys, was fatally stabbed with a machete in a random attack in a Wolverhampton park that also involved punching, kicking, and stamping. The sentencing took place at Nottingham Crown Court.
