13-year-old boy put behind bars for brutal murder of Glynis Bensley

A 13 year old boy has been sentenced to 12 years for the murder and robbery of 47 year-old Smethwick woman Glynis Bensley.

Petri Kurti was convicted of killing Ms Bensley last month.

20 year-old Zoheb Majid was also jailed for 10 years for her manslaughter and robbery.

The pair were both attending a sentencing hearing at Wolverhampton Crown Court.

She suffered a bleed on the brain after her head was stamped on in a brutal attack following a robbery last September as she made her way home from a local pub.

A 13-year-old boy will be sentenced today after being found guilty of murdering a woman by stamping so hard on her face during a robbery that she died from a bleed on the brain.

The child, who cannot be named for legal reasons, attacked 47-year-old Glynis Bensley from Smethwick in September when she was on her way home from the Seven Stars pub.

20-year-old Zoheb Majid will also be sentenced after being found guilty of robbery and manslaughter.

A jury at Wolverhampton Crown Court heard how they had planned to carry out a robbery via text messages a fortnight before the murder.
