One of Brianna Ghey’s murderers has made a bid to appeal against his sentence.
Eddie Ratcliffe was detained for life with a minimum sentence of 20 years after being convicted of killing the teenager, who was transgender, in a park in Cheshire.
He and Scarlett Jenkinson had lured Brianna to Culcheth where she was stabbed 28 times with a hunting knife.
Ratcliffe, 16, has “applied for permission to appeal”, the Judicial Office said.
There was “no record of an appeal” from Jenkinson, it added.
