Warren LeBlanc

Warren LeBlanc was the murderer and former friend of 14 year old Stefan Pakeerah in Leicester, England.
The murder
The murder took place on February 26, 2004. LeBlanc lured 14 year old Stefan Pakeerah to a park in Leicester to steal from him and ended up killing Pakeerah by stabbing him with a claw hammer. LeBlanc was 17 at the time.
Trial and imprisonment
LeBlanc pleaded guilty to the murder of Stefan Pakeerah. He was sentenced to life in prison. He will be eligible for parole within serving 13 years.
Video game obsession
Stefan's mother Giselle Pakeerah claimed that LeBlanc had been 'obsessed' with the video game, Manhunt. However, LeBlanc was not found to be in possession of the game. It was actually found to be owned by the victim, Pakeerah. The police denied any such link between the game and the murder, citing drug-related robbery as the motive. The presiding judge also placed sole responsibility with LeBlanc after giving him his sentence.
