Three teenagers have been sentenced to a total of 46 years in detention for the murder of 16-year-old Kayden Moy at Irvine Beach. Jay Stewart, 19, Cole Turley, 18, and a 15-year-old boy who cannot be named for legal reasons, stabbed Kayden to death on May 17 last year.
Sentencing at High Court
At the High Court in Glasgow on Tuesday, Lord Scott said the trio went to the beach intending to carry out an attack. He told them: 'You didn't care whether Kayden lived or died.' Stewart and Turley were each ordered to serve a minimum of 16 years in detention, while the 15-year-old must serve at least 14 years before being considered for release.
CCTV footage shows killers fleeing
CCTV and doorbell footage released by prosecutors shows the three teenagers sprinting from Irvine Beach and later hiding their faces as they entered a block of flats in East Kilbride after the stabbing. The trio were members of the Murray Boys gang. Kayden, who was unarmed, was chased and repeatedly stabbed.

Dog owner banned after squalid conditions
Connor Stewart, of Livingston, was banned from owning animals for five years after three dogs were found living in conditions described by Scottish SPCA inspectors as 'some of the worst' they had seen. The dogs were in a flat covered in urine and mouldy faeces, with no access to food or water. One dog was severely underweight, another drank 'voraciously' after rescue. Stewart was fined £200 and disqualified from owning, keeping or caring for animals for five years at Livingston Sheriff Court.
