19-year-old Eritrean immigrant Musa Salih was convicted of murdering 19-year-old Harley Perdue after stabbing him eight times during a failed robbery attempt in Chatham, Kent, England.
Saleh lured Pardo into a shared basement, intending to lock him in the bathroom before stealing money from his bedroom.
However, when Pardo resisted being captured, a violent confrontation broke out. Saleh repeatedly stabbed the boy eight times, causing fatal injuries.
Pardo's girlfriend tried to intervene, but Salih also tried to injure her before fleeing the property and fleeing the Medway area.
