	Description:		A 14-year-old killer will spend more than three years behind bars for the manslaughter of Dunedin schoolboy Enere McLaren-Taana. The then-13-year-old stabbed the 16-year-old victim, who was a Trinity Catholic College student, with a large kitchen knife, after a confrontation between the pair at Dunedin's bus hub in May last year. After a trial in March the teen killer was acquited of a muder charge, but the jury found him guilty of manslaughter. Tess Brunton reports.
