LEEDS, England — The teenage boy who stabbed Ann Maguire to death in her classroom aged just 15 has been jailed for life with a minimum of 20 years in prison.
The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, admitted murdering the 61-year-old at Corpus Christi Catholic College in Leeds earlier today.
Mr Justice Coulson told Leeds Crown Court he increased the normal minimum tariff of 12 years because of the nature of the brutal attack.
He told the court that the boy, now 16, had planned the stabbing and deliberately carried it out in front of children, taking pleasure in its public nature.
