Montreal Gazette - canada.com network: "He was 14 when he fell in love with Mark, a boy two years older, and adopted the guise of a female secret service agent to order his friend to stab him in a suburban alleyway. Mark was meant to end his life with the words: ''I love you, bro.''
Mark carried out the stabbing in Altrincham, Cheshire, shortly before 8 p.m. on June 29 last year. He knifed John in the chest and abdomen. The second blow cut into his kidney, liver and gall bladder, nearly killing him.
Minutes later, Mark reported the attack on his cell phone.
Police launched a manhunt after both boys told them a stranger in black had dragged John into the alleyway and stabbed him."
