The teenager had injuries to her chest and neck, a fact that was revealed today (July 6) during the hearing at the court in Gwent. A 14-year-old boy has been charged with Lily’s murder, according to the Daily Mail.
Coroner Caroline Saunders stated: “The cause of death was multiple stab wounds to the neck and torso.” Lily was last seen on the street in Blaina on the afternoon of June 20.
The 14-year-old accused of her murder appeared in court on June 29. Judge Tracy Lloyd-Clark announced that the trial will begin on November 23 and is expected to last four weeks.
The teenager, who did not enter a plea to the murder charge, was remanded in custody until his next court appearance.
Police described the teenager, who is from the Blaenau Gwent area of southeastern Wales, as a white British man.
Councilwoman Lisa Catherine Winnett had previously stated that the community was “shocked”: “My thoughts and prayers are with Lily’s family at this devastating and horrific time. I hope the police will act immediately to find the perpetrator.”
