The Trial: The Southport Dance School

Last summer, like thousands of children during the school holidays, three little girls in Southport in the North of England joined their friends to attend a dance school.

But six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe, and nine-year-old Alice da Silva Aguiar never came home.

They were brutally attacked when a knifeman went on the rampage. Many others were stabbed and injured that day but Bebe, Elsie and Alice lost their lives.

The man accused of their murders is 18 year old Axel Rudakubana. He goes on trial next week. Caroline and Liz will be covering the case.
