Loui Phillips was murdered in broad daylight in Monk Bretton on Sunday, August 8, by a 17-year-old boy he had never met.
The young Barnsley football fan was stabbed in the chest as he rode his bike with a friend along Fish Bank Lane at around 2pm and his killer then walked away.
A no-motive stabbing murder of a 15 year old stranger, and this isn't headline news?
DCI Mark Oughton said: “This is an incredibly tragic case where an innocent young boy was stabbed to death because his attacker was jealous.
Jealous? Of what? We aren't told.
“The killer planned his attack, locating Loui and his friend having purposely set out to go and stab him.
This doesn't add up - it may just be clumsy phrasing, but it sounds as if the attacker did know the victim and targeted him personally.
He has shown no remorse for his actions and always maintained his innocence until Monday.
“Loui was still conscious after he was stabbed and managed to give a full account of the attack to a police officer on the way to the hospital. All he wanted to know was where his mum was.
“My thoughts are with Loui’s mum, and his family and friends today; they have suffered unimaginable loss this year and no court result can ever make up for that.”
The teenager will return to Sheffield Crown Court for sentencing on Friday, December 17.
Maybe we'll get some answers about what provoked the attack then. But isn't it odd that the national press seems to have taken no interest in this at all?

Decidedly odd.
