A "COCKY" boy racer who killed three teenage friends in a crash after driving at 100mph has been jailed for nine years and four months.
Thomas Johnson, 19, was filmed by his victims inhaling nitrous oxide while behind the wheel of a powerful BMW when he lost control on a bend and smashed into a tree, killing all three passengers.
Elliot Pullen, 17, Ethan Goddard, 18, and Daniel Hancock, 18, were all fatally injured in the crash.
Devastated
Moments earlier, Johnson had overtaken a car at more than 100mph on the 30mph A415 near Abingdon, in Oxfordshire, on June 20, 2023.
Last night, Ethan's devastated father Robert said: "He's ruined everyone's life. He's taken three, ruined his own life, devastated ours, just for showing off."
Elliot's sister Mia, 20, added: "I know he's just a cocky teenage boy. I know he's not an awful person, but he made some awful decisions, and I really hope that he feels guilty for what he's done.
"This is his fault, he's done this, he's killed them and I hope it stays with him forever."
