Pair of 12-year olds in machete murder of stranger convicted after they tried to blame each other for bone-chilling crime

A pair of 12-year-old British boys have been convicted of murder in the fatal machete slashing of a teenage stranger – making them the youngest killers found guilty in the UK in over three decades.

The baby-faced killers, whose names have not been released, slashed 19-year-old Shawn Seesahai to death in November in a shocking unprovoked attack in Wolverhampton, the BBC reported.

The boys tried to blame each other for the brutal murder during the trial, but a jury on Monday found both of the violent youngsters guilty, the outlet reported.

Prosecutor Michelle Heeley told the panel during the trial that Seesahai was beaten and slashed in the back, legs and skull – which the attackers hit so hard that a piece of bone “had actually come away.”

“He had slash wounds on his leg and most significantly he had an injury from the machete that went through his body all the way from his back, through his ribs and into his heart,” Heeley said.

An eyewitness to the heinous slaying told police one of the boys was slashing Seesahai’s legs while the other was stomping on his head during the Nov. 13 assault.
