Teen boasted after fatal stabbing and made up a song about dying boy, court hears

The murder trial of 16-year-old Kayden Moy was told on Wednesday that a teenager with a knife “boasted” about “doing him”, and made up a song when they realised he wasn’t dead.

A witness told jurors 18-year-old Jay Stewart, a 15-year-old who can’t be named, and Cole Turley, who pled guilty to murder before the trial, were ‘ecstatic and over the moon’ when making up the rap about the stabbed teenager.

Kayden Moy was killed after he was stabbed on the body at Irvine Beach on May 17, 2025. Jay Stewart, 18, and a 15-year-old boy are on trial at the High Court in Glasgow charged with his murder.

The charge says Stewart and the 15-year-old, while acting with Cole Turley, 18, pursued Kayden and caused him to fall to the ground before they repeatedly stabbed him to the body.

The teenagers on trial deny all charges against them and the trial continues before Judge Lord Scott.
