David Minto sexually assaulted Sasha Marsden before stabbing her 58 times
A barman has been found guilty of killing teenager Sasha Marsden, whose partially burned body was found in a Blackpool alleyway.
David Minto, 23, sexually assaulted the youngster before stabbing her 15 times with a kitchen knife.
She suffered such serious injuries that her body, which was found wrapped in carpet underlay and bin liners, could not be recognised.
Sasha was just 16 years old and had been studying childcare at a local college.
However, her plan to take up a part-time cleaning job in a Blackpool hotel to earn some extra money ultimately cost her her life.
Minto, a barman and caretaker at the Grafton House Hotel, owned by his girlfriend and her mother, first met Sasha through a mutual acquaintance on a night out.
He contacted her on Facebook, where his online name was David "Demon" Minto, and used the promise of part-time work as a cleaner to lure Sasha to her death.
