Breck Bednar height - How tall is Breck Bednar?

In 2019, a new play, written by Mark Wheeller and using the words of his friends and family, tells the story of how the teenager was groomed online.

In March 2018, in the U.S., the story was depicted on the Investigation Discovery channel in the 'Dangerous Games' episode of the Web of Lies series. In 2015, Bednar's murder was featured in the US series Stalkers Who Kill in the episode titled "Babyface Killer".

According to ABC News, the family was "filing a lawsuit against Essex and Surrey police over the handling of the case." In March 2016, the family accepted a settlement in which Surrey Police apologised for their mishandling of the case, and paid an undisclosed sum in compensation.

On 26 January 2016, BBC Three broadcast a drama-documentary about the murder entitled Murder Games: The Life and Death of Breck Bednar. It was alleged, in January 2016, that Daynes had been blogging from prison.

According to BBC News, "Lewis Daynes, 19, of Rosebery Road, Grays, was due to stand trial at Chelmsford Crown Court on a charge of murder but admitted the offence" before the jury was sworn. Sentencing by Mrs Justice Cox was scheduled for 12 January 2015.

The Murder of Breck Bednar took place on 17 February, 2014, at a flat on Rosebery Road in Grays, Essex, England. Bednar, a 14-year-old boy from Caterham, Surrey, was killed by 18-year-old Lewis Daynes. Bednar knew Daynes only through online gaming and had never met him in person until he visited Daynes's flat on the day of the murder. Daynes pleaded guilty to the crime, and was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 25 years..

Bednar's parents, Barry Bednar and Lorin LaFave, were born in the United States. The family moved to England from the United States three years before Breck's birth. Barry Bednar, 49, is an oil trader and shipping consultant, described by some sources as a millionaire. Lorin LaFave, 48, is a teaching assistant. In 2014 the Evening Standard reported that the family lived with their three children – Breck's younger siblings – in a family home in Caterham.

In December 2013, Bednar's mother placed a call to Surrey Police expressing concerns around online grooming. LaFave said she warned police that her son was in danger. Nonetheless, it was reported, "The teenagers had been playing games online for several months, despite LaFave's efforts to put an end to their relationship."

Ms LaFave has called for "more help from the government for online safety", saying that she had expected more feedback from Surrey Police and adding, "I also wasn't recommended to contact CEOP (Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre), which I found out – when it was too late – is a really great agency that would help parents."
