The pair who killed Brianna Ghey in broad daylight arrogantly thought they were too clever to be caught.

Within 24 hours of Brianna Ghey's murder, investigating officers had identified the suspects - two teenagers who thought that hiding the most brutal of killings would be easy.

Jenkinson and Ratcliffe, who were referred to only as Girl X and Boy Y during their trial due to their ages, were convicted of her murder in December. Emma Mills, head teacher at Birchwood Community High School, said the school agreed to the transfer and was aware Jenkinson had taken cannabis into school.Killed in the Park"I'd had meetings with her and her mum before she came here and with a senior teacher from her school and we just talked through what happened that had led to the school asking her to come here on a placement," said Ms Mills.

The trial heard how Jenkinson and Ratcliffe had a fascination with violence, torture and murder and had planned the killing for weeks. Ms Heer told the court: "In Scarlett's case, she knew what she was doing was wrong and she knew it was very wrong."Det Ch Supt Mike Evans said Cheshire Police might never know exactly what motivated the teenagers to murder.

Jenkinson even assured Ratcliffe that he would not be caught, criticising the capabilities of police in the area.
