The man charged with the murder of nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel appeared in court earlier today.
Forty two days after Olivia was shot in her own home as her mum tried to stop a gunman coming through her front door, Thomas Cashman appeared in public for the first time since being charged with her murder.
Cashman, 34 and from West Derby, is also charged with the attempted murder of Cheryl Korbel, Olivia’s mum, and convicted drug dealer Joseph Nee, whom he is alleged to have followed into the home before shooting. In addition, he faces two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.
