scarlettjenkinson and eddie ratcliffe, the killers of brianna ghey. distressing. the two had been close, trusted friends, at school together, untiljenkinson was temporarily moved to birchwood high where scarlett became friends with brianna. in terms of scarlett, there were no red flags that came up. i think sitting and listening in court to the messages between eddie and scarlett was very, very surreal, and trying to imagine that anyone would talk in that way, plan in that way, and for it to be a child that you ve actually met is even more shocking. brianna s friend had dark fantasies she shared with ratcliffe. she wrote a letter planning how they d attack her. he smuggled a hunting knife out of his home. unaware, on a saturday afternoon, brianna went to meet them. they walked to the park and murdered her in cold blood, stabbing her more than two dozen times before running off across the fields, leaving her to die alone. they were arrested shortly after the attack and conv
