Teenager sentenced for murder of 12-year-old Leo Ross has been named
A teenage boy who murdered 12-year-old Leo Ross in a random knife attack in a Birmingham park has been named.
Kian Moulton, who was 14 at the time of the attack, was detained for a minimum of 13 years after stabbing the schoolboy in the stomach, at Birmingham Crown Court on Tuesday. Leo, who died after being taken to hospital on 21 January last year, had been walking home from the Christ Church, Church of England Secondary Academy in Yardley Wood when he was stabbed.
Moulton had pleaded guilty to murder at a hearing in January. He also admitted to three separate attacks on elderly women.
The judge, Mr Justice Choudhury, lifted an order preventing Moulton from being named because of his age on Thursday, following applications from a number of media organisations. Mr Choudhury called his attacks "horrific and shocking.
