A 16-year-old thug who murdered the father-to-be who escorted him home from a drunken night out has been told he will spend at least 15 years behind bars. An intoxicated Connor Doughton had already tried to fight a nightclub bouncer and had hurled abuse at a woman on the street when Michael-Lee Emmett and John Williams decided to walk him back to his parents' house in Blackwood, South Wales. But once home, troubled Doughton ran to the kitchen to grab a knife, before heading outside where he stabbed both Mr Emmett and Mr Williams.
