"Three teenagers who posed for selfies after killing a 51-year-old homeless man outside King's Cross station have been sentenced to a combined 23 years in prison. Mia Campos-Jorge, 19, Eymaiyah Lee Bradshaw-McKoy, 18, and Jaidee Bingham, 18, repeatedly kicked Anthony Marks, beat him with a gin bottle and hit him with a car bonnet in August 2024 in a county lines retribution attack."
"Audio from a CCTV camera picked up male and female voices shouting: "Hit him again. Kick kicking. Do it again. Have you learned your lesson yet?" As they made off in a car with false number plates, the youths were seen on video recordings in a mood of celebration with Bingham saying: "We messed up a man today." The teenagers, then aged 16 and 17, had started working for a county lines drug organisation earlier that month."
Three teenagers — Mia Campos-Jorge, 19, Eymaiyah Lee Bradshaw-McKoy, 18, and Jaidee Bingham, 18 — attacked 51-year-old homeless man Anthony Marks outside King's Cross station in August 2024. They repeatedly kicked him, beat him with a gin bottle and struck him with a car bonnet; Bingham struck Marks over the head twice with a glass bottle, causing the fatal injury. Photographs and video showed the youths posing for selfies and celebrating afterwards. The teenagers had begun working for a county lines drug organisation earlier that month and confronted Marks after one girl reported a robbery. Bingham received a minimum 16-year sentence for murder; the other two received custodial sentences for manslaughter, totaling 23 years combined.
