'Inspired' by IS videos, girl kills mom, gets jail

A 15-year-old girl has be en jailed for murdering her mother after becoming obsessed with Isis beheading videos. 

Teenager Lisa Borch had been watching brutal online videos of British hostages David Haines and Alan Henning being killed just minutes before her mother was fatally stabbed at least 20 times with a kitchen knife last year, according to reports. 

Tine Romer Holtegaard, a painter who lived with her twin daughters and husband Jens, was found covered in blood by police at her home in Kvissel, rural Denmark, in October last year. Police were alerted to the incident by Borch, who told emergency services she had heard her mother scream and saw a "white man" running away .A court heard that Borch seemed disinterested when police arrived at the property , shrugging her shoulders when they told her Holtegaard was dead in her bedroom, Bild newspaper reported. Police later examined Borch's computer and found she had been watching IS videos "the whole evening long". 

The fingerprints of Borch's 29-year-old boyfriend, Bakhtiar Mohammed Abdulla, were also found in Holtegaard's bedroom. Borch had met Abdulla, originally from Iraq, at a refugee centre near her home. It is believed the pair had plotted to flee to Syria and fight for IS. Lisa's twin sister told the court she had previously moved out of home due to the constant arguing between Borch and her mother. The court heard it was "the endless rowing which cost the mother her life" and that the majority of their arguments concerned Borch and Abdullah's ties. 

The court was unable to rule which of the pair delivered the stab wounds, and both were convicted of murder. 

While Borch was sentenced to nine years imprisonment, Abdullah was sentenced to 13 years in prison, after which he will be expelled from Denmark.
