James Cleghorn was a "beautiful, gentle soul" who, at 16, had the world before him. He loved nothing more than playing his guitar, video games, hanging out with his mates and dreamt of becoming a lawyer or a pilot. That's what makes it all the more tragic when he was brutally murdered in his family home in Wagga Wagga, NSW; a devastating death at the hands of a violent domestic abuser.
