Three teenagers have today been sentenced to a combined total of 37 years in prison for murdering Telford man Peter Cairns. Shropshire
The 26-year-old was fatally stabbed on the evening of Friday 11 June, 2021 when the three teenagers were on their way to a pre-arranged fight with another group of youths in the Woodside area of the town.
“Peter was a good man, who had recently lost his job. As a sign of the man that he was, he picked himself up and got straight back out there to find himself work. That is exactly what he had been doing the day he was murdered. “Peter was an innocent man; he had no connections to gang activity whatsoever, and he gave these boys no cause to attack him.
“I would also like to acknowledge Peter’s family who have supported our investigation from start to finish and whose dignity in the face of such an awful tragedy can only be admired and commended. More so I would like to say thank you to those members of the public who have supported our investigation and stood up for Peter, his family and his friend when it really counted.”
