A teenager who was 'obsessed with knives and violence' has been given a life sentence with a minimum of 20 years for the murder of 18-year-old Noah Smedley in Ilkeston last December.
Charles Hartle, 18, stabbed Noah whilst buying cannabis from him. The court heard he pulled on a balaclava whilst grinning and then took out a 'Rambo' knife and killed him.
