They had set off together to the party with masks and knives clearly intending to kill or cause someone serious harm once they got there.

“Their actions were witnessed by partygoers who knew and recognised them, and by neighbours who saw the attack unfold on their doorsteps; and their evidence was supported by taxi dashcam footage, CCTV and forensics, as well as admissions by some of the defendants themselves.”

The two youth defendants admitted their involvement to one of their girlfriends immediately after the attack.

The 17-year-old also bragged to friends about what the gang had done and boasted about the stabbings in a rap which was later recovered from the phone of one of his friends.

Clayton Barker wrote about the events on the night of the attack in a diary which was seized on his arrest.

I am impressed. I didn't think they would get so many years - particularly JC and BP.
