All the news that didn't fit
All the news that didn't fit:
"The leader of a gang that beat, boiled, strangled and chopped up a 14-year-old boy in Wales was convicted of murder.
Lucky for Matthew Welsh, his victim was teenage, male and average-looking, rather than female, preteen, and cute, thus Huntley-type notoriety just kind of passed him by."
Hmm, interesting. 14 year old boys being killed barely makes page 5 while Huntley makes pages 1-4.
