Two 15 year old girls sentenced to life.

BBC news reported that two 15 year old girls have been sentenced to life after they tortured an murdered a vulnerable women in December 2014. At the time of the crime committed they were 13 and 14 years of age. The victim was 39 years old and was found in her home in which the two girls let them self into. Angela Wrightson was beaten to death with several different items including a shovel and TV. The two girls responsible to advantage of Angela's learning difficulties and the three of them had drinks together before the girls ended the short friendship with murder. The girls took photos with Angela before the attack and took pictures of them in a police van when they called for a lift home. The two girls lived in a children home and the police did not suspect anything when they called 999 for a ride and did not see the blood on their clothes. 

The issue with this report is that the BBC news reported that the girls would disappear for long amounts of time from the children's home and the care workers often didn't know where they were. Also Angela's care was an issue as it raises questions about if she should of been left alone if she was that vulnerable. The problem with this is that the care workers of both the girls and Angela failed them as if the care workers stopped the girls from going off then this may not have happened. This is the same with Angela as if she had a carer with her this may not have happened. This is a shocking new report as they are both so young and it was a horrific attack.

The attack should be reported on the news because it is a gruesome event and it is quite rare. There are not often any stories about young teenage girls committing such crimes. Also it is important for this story to be reported on because people want to know what the punishment was for the girls because it is a difficult case where they are really young and they don't. People want to know if the received the correct punishment for the crime.
