The smiling selfie killers: Teenage girl gangsters laugh and sing after beating 51-year-old man to death – as they face years in prison

Teenage gangster girls who laughed and sang chillingly after beating a man to death in a brutal attack now face years behind bars.

Anthony Marks, 51, died after being hit by a car, then chased, stepped on, beaten with a gin bottle and left for dead by wild teenage girls.

The victim was found by police at King’s Cross Station with serious injuries to his face and arms at around 5.25am on August 10 last year.

He died from his injuries more than a month later on September 14, 2024.

Now the names of the killers Jaidee Bingham, Eymaiyah Lee Bradshaw-McKoy and Mia Campos-Jorge can be revealed after they turn 18.

Both before and after the brutal murder, the teens posed callously, smiled for photos and even shared a video of themselves singing and laughing in the car.

These chilling photos of the girls, taken on the day of the attack, ultimately led to their downfall; photos and videos placed them at the scene of the crime.

They have since been found guilty of killing Mr. Marks in a retaliatory attack on county lines and will be sentenced.

Bingham and Bradshaw-McKoy were 16 when they killed the victim, and Campos-Jorge was 17.

The teenagers shared photos on social media before and after brutally murdering Anthony Marks.

The girl gangsters also shared a video of themselves singing and laughing in the car after the brutal murder.

All three young women were found guilty at the Old Bailey on Thursday, October 30.

Bingham, 18, known as ‘The Ghost’ of Dagenham, was unanimously found guilty of murder.

Bradshaw-McKoy, 18, from Lambeth, and Campos-Jorge, 19, from Tottenham, were found guilty of manslaughter by a majority verdict.

Detective Inspector Jim Barry, of the Met’s Northern Crime Specialist, who is leading this investigation, said: ‘This is a particularly callous murder that shines a light on the brutal brutality of gangs in the borough.

‘The ages of Bingham, Bradshaw-McKoy and Campos-Jorge are particularly shocking. But the fact that they were teenagers does not excuse their acts of violence as part of a drugs pipeline that brings fear and intimidation to the streets of London.

‘They believed they were escaping justice, they even took selfies together and laughed at what they had done. There is a sense of fairness that officers can use these to locate crime scenes.

‘This decision shows how the Met is tackling criminal gangs and is determined to achieve justice for its victims.’

The three girls started working for the county drug gang on the evening of Friday, August 9th.

Police said after one of the girls was robbed, Bingham was told to find out who had taken the drugs.

They believed Mr Marks knew what had happened and went to confront him on Saturday 10 August.

He was chased by Bingham and Bradshaw-McKoy from Argyle Street to Whidbourne Street; CCTV footage shows Bradshaw-McKoy using a long object believed to be a car bumper.

Mr Marks was repeatedly kicked and hit on the head with a glass gin bottle until a member of the public armed with a cricket bat chased them.

Police found Mr Marks covered in blood at King’s Cross Station that morning after he went to the transport center to seek help.

Police officers were able to interview Mr Marks and later used CCTV to create a detailed picture of the night he was attacked.

Over the following days they located the young suspects at their homes in south, north and east London and seized their mobile devices.
