LONDON (Reuters) - Two boys who were aged just 12 when they killed a 19-year-old man in a "horrific" machete attack in central England last year were on Friday sentenced to a minimum of eight years and six months in custody.
The boys, now 13, are the youngest people to be convicted for murder in Britain since two 10-year-olds killed toddler James Bulger in 1993, one of the most infamous murders in the country's recent history.
