However, today (Monday) at the Old Bailey, they admitted the manslaughter of Mr Rusek and will be sentenced on April 23.
DCI Scola said: “These four teenagers lived a life without boundaries.
“They were captured on CCTV aimlessly wandering the streets the day before, changing into darker hooded clothing to return after dark with a more sinister intent.
“The night that Krzysztof died he had been working hard on his 30th birthday to earn a modest living as a chef. When he finished his shift and decided to sit and celebrate his day their paths crossed with tragic consequences.
“The evidence gathered by specially trained detectives will make sure that after today’s convictions they will be held accountable for their actions and will no longer be free to roam the streets and do as they please.”
