The 16-year-old English schoolboy Joshua Davies who bludgeoned to death 15 year old Rebecca Aylward with a rock has some “innocent” photos of him posted on Facebook.

Joshua talked about beating his ex, Rebecca, to death repeatedly on different social networks ‘til he eventually said “The time has come”. But he killed her only after one of his friends jokingly promised to buy him breakfast if he followed through with his threat.

After committing his forfeit, Mr Davies wrote to his pal: “Don’t say anything but you may just owe me a breakfast.” The other guy replied: “Best text I have ever had mate. Seriously, if it is true I am happy to pay for a breakfast. I want all the details. You sadistic bastard.” The text finishes with a smiley face symbol.
