A teenager accused of murdering Alfie Lewis by stabbing him to death outside a school edited a photo of himself holding a black-handled knife months before, a court has heard.
He later killed Alfie near to the junction of Church Lane and Church Road in Horsforth on November 7 last year, using a kitchen knife that had been painted black. He admits delivering the fatal blow to Alfie, who died after being stabbed through the heart, but says he was in fear for his own safety following a number of previous altercations. However, a photo was later found that depicted the boy - who cannot be named for legal reasons - posing with the superimposed knife in his hand.
Earlier today, the boy said that he had been scared of Alfie, claiming to have been chased by him the week before. Saying he was still scared when he went to school, he took that knife from the kitchen and placed it in the waistband of his trousers.
