A 15-year-old boy identified as Marcel Grzeszcz has been sentenced after he stabbed his 12-year-old friend, Roberts Buncis to death in a frenzied attack in Boston, Lincolnshire.

According to reports, the suspect lured Roberts to a woodland just days before his 13th birthday.

He persuaded Roberts to meet by offering him £50 to sell cannabis.

However, upon arrival, the boy stabbed his friend more than 70 times in the “brutal and prolonged” assault. The victim’s wounds were steady with an endeavor to eliminate the head.

After he was arrested and arraigned to court, Grzeszcz was ordered to serve a minimum term of 17 years.

Members of the jury took under two hours to convict Grzeszcz, who was 14 at the hour of the assault in the Fishtoft region on 12 December 2020.

During the trial, the suspect insisted he had acted in self-defence and had lost it when Roberts, whom he blamed for carrying a knife to the scene, attempted to cut him.

Prosecutor Mary Loram QC told the court there was no proof Roberts had been armed, and the assault showed a critical level ofpre-meditation and planning.
She said;
“The number of injuries and significant suffering suggested Roberts’ death was “more than a simple stabbing.”

While sentencing Grzeszcz, Mr Justice Baker rejected s claim about the knife, stating that the suspect not yet shown “any true remorse”.

According to him, the defendant had made a determined effort to remove his head before leaving his body for others to find”.

After the killing, the judge said, Grzeszcz made endeavors to cover wrongdoing and discard proof by burning his clothe and sending messages asserting he never met Roberts on the night he was killed.

The judge warned Grzeszcz he may never be released.

Speaking about Robert’s death n a statement read to the court, the deceased’s father, Edgars Buncis said;

“This is all wrong. No father should have to bury his son.
Nothing is a reason for this. I have lost my destination, and my purpose. My life is in a cemetery.”

Speaking after the sentencing, Det Ch Insp Richard Myszczyszyn said the completely silly killing would be remembered by officials and staff as one of the most noticeably awful and saddest cases they have at any point dealt with.

“The level of violence, and that it involved children, makes it almost incomprehensible,” he said.
