No sentence enough for Holly’s killer, say parents
Family handoutThe parents of a 15-year-old girl murdered by her ex-boyfriend have said no sentence will ever be enough to ease their pain.
Holly Newton was stalked and then stabbed to death by her ex-boyfriend in Hexham, Northumberland, last January.
Logan MacPhail was detained for at least 17 years for her murder on Friday at Newcastle Crown Court.
Holly’s mother, Micala Trussler, told BBC Breakfast she wanted the age a person can be legally recognised as being a victim of a domestic abuse to be lowered.
