A 13 year old boy will be sentenced today in London for the murder of a 53 year old Irish man just before Christmas.
The teenager - who can't be named for legal reasons - pleaded guilty to the murder of Christopher 'Jack' Barry at Edmonton in North London on December 14th.
Mr Barry - who was from Cobh Co Cork - was stabbed after he tried to stop a group of teenagers gaining entrance to his apartment building.
Last month, the boy pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey to the murder of Mr Barry.
