A teenager charged with murdering a football player wants to withdraw his own bail request.

The young driver, who is just 17 years old, has been accused of causing the tragic death of up-and-coming football player Nick Campo. In a recent court hearing, the teenager's bail was revoked at his own request. According to his lawyer, the decision was made as an act of remorse, as the boy appeared in front of Campo's grieving parents today.

The incident in question took place in North Lake, a suburb in the south of Perth, where the teenager was allegedly driving a car that rolled and collided with another vehicle back in July. Nick was among five people who were inside the car at the time of the accident. Initially, the young driver was charged with dangerous driving that resulted in death. However, this was later upgraded to manslaughter.

During the court hearing at Perth Children's court, the teenager's lawyer explained the reason behind his client's unusual request to have his bail revoked. It was a way for him to show remorse for his actions. Since losing his son, Daniel Campo has been a strong advocate for road safety. In a statement outside the court, he expressed the pain and heartache that he and his family have been going through. Every day since Nick's passing has felt like a blur to them.

The loss of a young life is always devastating, and this case is no exception. It serves as a tragic reminder of the importance of responsible driving and the consequences that can arise from reckless behavior. The court proceedings will continue, and hopefully, justice will be served for Nick and his loved ones.
