A 16-year-old boy was sentenced to 27 years in prison for the abduction, sexual assault, and murder of a 6-year-old girl in Scotland in a case that has gripped the interest of the nation.
Having denied his guilt throughout the nine-day trial last month, Aaron Campbell suddenly confessed to psychologists ahead of the sentencing hearing on March 21. The judge said the confession revealed a “cold, calculating, remorseless” individual.
