Teenager guilty of ‘devil pact’ murder of two sisters in park

An "evil" teenager has been found guilty of the savage murders of two sisters he stabbed to death in a north London park as they celebrated a birthday.

Danyal Hussein, 19, repeatedly stabbed Bibaa Henry, 46, and Nicole Smallman, 27, after using his own blood to sign a pact with mythical King Lucifuge Rofocale, the Old Bailey heard.

In a "campaign of vengeance" Hussein pledged to kill six women every six months to win the Mega Millions Super Jackpot of £321 million and carry on killing women as long as he was able, jurors heard.

In another sinister note, he offered blood to “demon Queen Byleth” to make a girl at his school fall in love with him.

Hussein's killing spree was halted because he cut himself during the frenzied attack on the sisters, enabling police to track him through DNA.

A jury found Hussein guilty yesterday of two counts of murder and possession of a knife with intent after a jury deliberated for around eight hours.

Mrs Justice Whipple thanked jurors and adjourned sentencing until September 22.

Jurors were not told of the extent of Hussein's obsession with demons, spells and potions.

It can now be reported that he had come to the attention of police aged just 15 over fears he was vulnerable to radicalisation and violent extremism.

Detective Chief Inspector Simon Harding revealed that Hussein had been on a deradicalisation programme between October 2017 and May 2018.
