Jenkinson, 15, and her accomplice, Eddie Ratcliffe, were convicted of Brianna's murder in December 2023. During the trial, it was revealed that Jenkinson had developed an unhealthy obsession with Brianna after they became classmates. She was reported to have been interested in serial killers and had discussed harmful plans with Ratcliffe over social media.

The documentary, titled "Brianna: A Mother's Story," features interviews with Brianna's mother, Esther, who expresses her deep pain and betrayal over Jenkinson's actions. She had been concerned about Brianna’s online interactions prior to the tragedy. Esther has since campaigned for stricter regulations on social media to protect young users.

Brianna was known for her vibrant personality and had many followers on social media. The film is set to air tomorrow and aims to honor her memory while raising awareness about the dangers of online interactions.
