## Resource

Two teens, 14 and 15, walk free after a harrowing Glasgow murder trial — they were acquitted of stabbing 15-year-old Amen Teklay through the heart with a sword. The younger teen claimed self-defense, saying both he and Amen had swords, while the older teen insisted he was too far away to participate. The feud, which began in 2024 after Amen allegedly stole cannabis from the older teen and his friends — who were armed with knives — escalated into a violent “war” of weapons. Text messages revealed threats and boasts about “big shanks,” hinting at a brewing conflict. Despite the graphic details and witness testimony, the jury found both boys not guilty — now 16 and 17, their identities shielded by age.
