A mum has made a desperate plea for truth on the tenth anniversary of her son’s murder – demanding of the killers: “How can you live with it?”
Heartbroken Kristina Caesar spoke out after a decade of not knowing the full facts about how 15-year-old Adam Regis died.
Popular Adam, the nephew of Olympic silver medal sprint hero John Regis, was knifed to death in a suburban East London street on March 17, 2007.
But despite ten years of trawling evidence, a £20,000 reward, a nationwide appeal on BBC’s Crimewatch and 21 arrests, the gang who stabbed Adam as he came home from the cinema have never been caught.
Now, in an exclusive interview with the Sunday People , the teenager’s mother has told how she still clings to the hope that one day justice will be done.
Teaching assistant Kristina, 51, said: “I want those responsible to tell me why they did it
I don’t think the people who killed Adam have a heart. How could anybody live with this for ten years? How could you destroy someone’s life?
“How could you eat, how could you function? What kind of human being are you?
“It’s horrible living without Adam. The killers have had their lives but I’ve missed Adam’s birthdays, his 18th, his 21st.
“He would be 25 now and I often think what he would be doing with his life.”
Detectives worked on theories that he was a victim of mistaken identity, caught up in a feud between gangs or that he was killed in a gruesome ritual.
Police also released an image of a bronze Volkswagen Scirocco which the suspects are thought to have used to flee the scene. But all their inquiries have been met with a wall of silence.
Kristina said: “We were told if he had been part of a gang it would have been easier to find the killers. That’s really hard to take.
