Stuart Stephens will never forget the moment his 13-year-old son, Olly, walked out of the front door and never came home. Olly was murdered on 3 January 2021 by two other teens, aged 13 and 14 at the time, who were convicted of murder. But Stephens is convinced there is another culprit. The stabbing was prompted, planned, and coordinated across several social media platforms. Last year in the UK, a fifth of people arrested for terrorism offences were under 18.
