Tyler Hunt, 18, and a 15-year-old boy, whose identity cannot be disclosed for legal reasons, were found guilty by a unanimous jury decision in November. Today, they were sentenced to a total of 31 years in prison at Bristol Crown Court.
The tragic incident occurred on December 4, 2022, when 18-year-old Owen was fatally stabbed in Mazurek Way, Swindon. Owen, who was on his way to visit his girlfriend, was found to be in possession of a weapon, which was later discovered by paramedics.
During the trial, the court was presented with compelling evidence, including CCTV, doorbell, and dash cam footage. The footage showed Hunt, who was 17 at the time, and the 15-year-old, then 14, travelling on e-bikes to the location of the attack.
