Ann Maguire murder: Teenager Will Cornick sentenced to life

A 16-year-old boy has been given a life sentence after he admitted murdering Leeds teacher Ann Maguire.

Will Cornick stabbed Mrs Maguire, 61, in the neck in a classroom at Corpus Christi Catholic College in Leeds in April.

She had worked at the school for more than 40 years and had been due to retire.

The judge, ordering Cornick to serve a minimum of 20 years, said he had shown a "chilling lack of remorse".

Danny Savage reports.
