A man stabbed a 16-year-old girl to death because he "liked killing", a court has been told.

Shea Peter Heeley was jailed for at least 24-and-a-half years at Sheffield Crown Court on Monday for the murder of Leonne Weeks, who he stabbed 28 times.

Heeley, 19, lured Leonne to a secluded spot in Dinnington, near Rotherham, South Yorkshire, in January last year and stabbed her "for no reason at all", prosecutor Tim Roberts QC said.

The court heard that after his arrest, Heeley said he had always known that he would kill someone, and later told staff in a secure mental hospital: "I like that I have done it, I just do. I like killing."

Heeley, of Doe Quarry Lane, Dinnington, admitted murder last month. As he was led from court, someone in the packed public gallery shouted: "Do us all a favour and hang yourself."

Judge Paul Watson QC said Heeley had befriended Leonne about a year before, as they were both from Dinnington, and they had been at a party together two days before the killing, on January 15, 2017.
