Two drunken teenagers who laughed 'like clowns' as they punched, kicked and stamped a stranger to death were today facing life behind bars.
Friends Dennis Hind, 18, and 19-year-old Tutu Kabalika picked on hapless Stephen Miller, 45, as they stumbled home from a party.
The pair, who had downed vodka, beer and taken cocaine rained down a string of blows on the victim's head as he lay defenceless on the ground.
The helpless victim pleaded for his life repeatedly shouting 'please stop', but could do nothing to fend off the vicious assault.
Ignoring the screams, Kabalika was seen to land a double-footed stamp on Mr Miller's prone body.
Hind then followed up with a powerful kick to his head as the two killers laughed at their victim.
The victim was out getting some fresh air because he could not sleep when he was savagely attacked.
They goaded the fatally injured man shouting: 'Come on, get up, get up.'
When neighbours, who had been woken by the sound of the sickening attack, tried to intervene Kabalika told them: 'I don't think he's had enough.'
Mr Miller died in hospital a few hours after the attack. He suffered 'multiple fractures to the body' including a broken shoulder, crushed neck, 15 broken ribs and a broken jaw.
He suffered severe brain injuries from the assault and never regained consciousness.
Today Hind and Kabalika were both convicted of murder by a jury at the Old Bailey.
They will return to be sentenced next month.
Judge David Paget QC said: 'There is only one sentence I can pass.'
The court heard Mr Miller stepped out of his flat around 2.30am to get some air because an ear condition made it difficult for him to sleep.
He had spent the night watching television with his flatmate in Middle Park Avenue, Eltham, south London, on August 24 last year.
Further down the street Hind and Kabalika were leaving a friend's party.
They bought a 'large quantity of beer and vodka' and were already drunk when they arrived.
Hinds made another trip to the off-licence during the night to buy another bottle of vodka and both men were seen snorting cocaine.
As they left Kabalika was seen being sick in a toilet.
Prosecutor Martin Hicks QC said the killers were like a 'pack of hyenas.'
'When they left they were both uninjured and had but a short walk to the grassy area where the confrontation with Mr Miller took place.
'We may never know who started the confrontation or why. These two men had never met Mr Miller before, but what we do know is that other than the defendants no one else was involved.
'What is plain is that as it developed there came a time when Mr Miller was on the floor defenceless and in a sufficient state of defencelessness for a considerable period of time.
'As Mr Miller lay on a grass verge unable to defend himself Hinds and Kabalika repeatedly punched, kicked and stamped upon his head and his body.
'During that attack the victim was heard to plead for his attackers to stop, but he sustained multiple serious injuries and sadly died as a result of blunt force trauma to his head and his neck.'
One witness Patricia McLenahan said: 'They seemed to be quite amused by this, like clowns.' continues here
