'Nothing can bring back the son we dearly loved'
Briefly

The family of murdered schoolboy Daniel Anjorin spoke publicly after Marcus Monzo was sentenced to at least 38 years in prison for the tragic killing of their 14-year-old son with a samurai sword. They described the immense pain of losing Daniel, who was described as a gifted and kind individual with a bright future. His parents expressed gratitude towards the judicial process and the community for their support during this traumatic time, emphasizing their hope to honor Daniel’s memory through the positive impact he had on others.
This has been a painful and deeply traumatic chapter in our lives. No verdict or sentence can bring back our son Daniel, who we loved so dearly but we are grateful that justice has been served.
Daniel was taken from us in a way that no family should ever have to endure. His life had so much potential ahead. He was gifted academically, was kind and had a generous spirit that touched everyone who knew him.
We want to express our deepest thanks to the police, prosecution team, and all those who worked tirelessly to seek the truth. Your dedication has meant more than words can fully convey.
To everyone who has supported us through this ordeal, friends, family, our church, our workplaces, our children's schools and even strangers: thank you. Your love and support has been a lifeline.
