#JAILED | These are the faces of three teens who've been jailed today for almost 50 years after killing Scott Anderton in a sustained and vicious attack in #Leigh.
Scott was found floating in a canal in March having suffered horrific injuries including nearly 40 stab wounds. Image
This footage shows the last movements of the 33-year-old before he was killed by Liam Bailey (19), Harry Maher (16) and Liam O'Brien (17) who were all jailed after a comprehensive investigation by detectives in our Major Incident Team.
DCI Liz Hopkinson said: "This was an extremely violent, callous and unprovoked attack that cost a man his life.

"Although we won't be able to bring Scott back I hope today's significant sentence provides a sense of justice and closure for his family and loved ones." Image
