It was reported that Ghey who had agreed to meet the girl in a local park, was stabbed 28 times with a hunting knife before her body was spotted by a couple walking their dogs.
On Wednesday, a UK court pronounced two British teenagers guilty of the "ferocious attack" that resulted in the death of 16-year-old transgender girl Brianna Ghey earlier this year in a park in Northwest England.
Reuters reports that the court heard the boy and girl, who were 15 at the time of the murder and cannot be named because of their age, spent months plotting to kill someone and had a list of several potential victims whom they knew.
It was reported that Ghey who had agreed to meet the girl in a local park, was stabbed 28 times with a hunting knife before her body was spotted by a couple walking their dogs.
The prosecutors told the court that Ghey's killers had shared hundreds of WhatsApp messages in the run-up to the murder, sharing fantasies about murder and torture, with the girl admitting she enjoyed watching videos about serial killers, murder and torture.
Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor Ursula Doyle of Crown Prosecution Service, Mersey Cheshire was quoted as saying, "The planning, the violence and the age of the killers is beyond belief. Brianna Ghey was subjected to a frenzied and ferocious attack and was stabbed 28 times in broad daylight, in a public park.
"Girl X and Boy Y appear to have been a deadly influence on each other and turned their dark fantasies about murder into a reality."
Speaking outside court, Nigel Parr, Detective Inspector at Cheshire Police, described the killing as "a senseless murder committed by two teenagers who had an obsession with murder, whose only motivation in killing Brianna was to experience what this would be like."
The pair will be sentenced after Christmas.
