@itvnews: Two teenagers who were convicted of killing a 16-year-old at a house party have walked free from prison after their convictions were quashed by the Court of Appeal. Cartel Bushnell, 17, and Leo Knight, 18, were jailed for the manslaughter of Mikey Roynon last year. Mikey, from Kingswood near Bristol, died after being attacked with a zombie knife during a house party in Bath in June 2023. Shane Cunningham, 16, fatally stabbed the teenager in the neck and was convicted of his murder after a trial at Bristol Crown Court. He remains in prison despite trying to appeal his conviction. A jury also found Cartel Bushnell and Leo Knight guilty of manslaughter by joint enterprise - a law which can be applied when it is believed someone has assisted or encouraged another person to commit a crime. The pair have since served more than two years in custody after being convicted but in May this year, successfully appealed their sentence.

If you’re carrying a zombie knife you’re expecting something to happen. That in itself is premeditated. The justice system is honestly a mess.

Her privilege made her think it would never happen to her kids.. so didn't think to look out for who her son was hanging around with.🤨😒 ... A group of 16 year olds ... where was the responsible adult? Parents NOT taking accountability. NOT looking to see who their kids hanging around.

Sounds to me like the two lads snitched on the other lad who’s still inside. Carrying a knife should be an automatic 5 year sentence as a minimum to deter others from doing so. That poor mother is left without a son, and these two lads who are responsible for that now walk free.
