Today would have been Kennie's 17th birthday
The killer of a schoolboy who was followed home and stabbed to death is being urged to 'clear their conscience' - six months on from the tragedy. Ten teenagers - now between the ages of 13 and 18 - remain under investigation following the death of Kennie Carter, 16, in Stretford on Saturday, January 22.

So we will never get closure for the family and get the justice that the family need for Kennie until people come forward and speak to us."
"We know that Kennie was friends with a certain group of people and that the night before Kennie's murder there was an incident," said DCI Smith. "On the night of the murder, we know that there was a group of youths that travelled to the area - not looking for Kennie, that wasn't the issue. "It's been very difficult," said DCI Smith. "You don't think that children - which they are - would be involved in something so serious. It's been devastating for the family and also for the wider community.
Joan Dixon, Kennie's mum, told the M.E.N: "Somebody's got to do the right thing. Parents, just talk to your children and get them to do the right thing. If it was on the other foot and it was them, they'd want the right thing doing.
