19-year-old sentenced to 18 months in prison but released with time served for role in deadly North Lakes burglary
A teenager who broke into the home of Emma Lovell, alongside another teen who stabbed her to death on Boxing Day 2022, has been released upon sentencing for his role in the home invasion after being detained for almost two years awaiting the verdict.
The now 19-year-old – who cannot be named for legal reasons as he was 17 on the night Lovell was murdered by his companion – was also charged with a string of other offences committed in months prior to that fatal home invasion, including breaking into another home while its occupant was home and stealing her car.
