Holly Newton was stabbed to death in an alleyway by Logan MacPhail in January 2023 after he would not accept that their 18-month relationship had ended.

The family of murdered Holly Newton say her killer ex was "controlling" and they want the offence, recorded as knife crime, to be classed as domestic violence.

Logan MacPhail stabbed Holly, aged 15, to death in Hexham in Northumberland in 2023.
