""Belle's attack on Josh was premeditated, fuelled by a long-standing feud, highlighting the tragic consequences of escalating disputes and the role of planning in violent crimes.""
""The discovery of a rap video making threats against Josh before the murder shows how social media can document real-life tensions leading to violent actions.""
Renai Belle, aged 30, was convicted of murdering 33-year-old Josh McKay and possession of a knife at the Old Bailey. The crime, described as premeditated, occurred in a barber shop where Belle stabbed McKay in the neck while wearing a balaclava, motivated by an ongoing feud. After fleeing the scene, Belle was tracked down and arrested, while his accomplice, Tenika Parker, attempted to destroy evidence. Involvement of a rap video revealing threats made by Belle against McKay demonstrates the link between social media and real-life violence.
