The three teenagers aged 15 and 16 have been detained for murdering a young man last year.
Peter Cairns was murdered by three teenagers last year
Jurors were told during the trial that the incident involved four weapons; a knife, a blunt Samurai sword, a wheel-brace and a hammer. The 11-strong jury decided the two guilty verdicts unanimously following 17 hours and 46 minutes of deliberation. In a victim impact statement to the court, Mr Cairns' mum Lisa, said:"My mind is filled with things to say but I can't seem to find the words to get them out. I have not been in Peter's room or looked at his pictures."I am a rational person, I know that he is not coming back but don't want any more reminders that he is not coming back.
Andrew O'Byrne, QC, in mitigation for the teen who admitted striking the fatal blow with a kitchen knife, said his client was suffering serious mental health problems since the death of his much loved great-grandfather. He was also a father, and this was something that offered him hope."Their loss will continue forever. We hope it will lessen but it will never, ever go away.
Mr O'Byrne also said his client was a 3g-a-day cannabis user and had a child which"gives him some hope for the future".
