Brianna Ghey trial hears accused told co-defendant not to worry about getting caught

Girl who was 15 at time of murder messaged not to be anxious as ‘police are shite here’

A 16-year-old girl accused of murdering Brianna Ghey told her co-defendant not to worry about getting caught because the “police are shite here”, a court heard.

But both were arrested the day after the killing, shortly after the girl’s mother rang Cheshire police to say that the teenagers had been with Brianna on the afternoon she was killed, a jury was told on Friday.
