The mum of Ava White can't face returning to her job, due to it being just metres away from where her daughter was murdered.
12-year-old Ava, died last November after being stabbed in the neck on Church Alley in Liverpool. Her 14-year-old killer, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was found guilty of murder in May following a trial and returned to Liverpool Crown Court for sentencing today, (Monday, July 11).
The boy ( Boy A ), who has since turned 15, was given a life sentence, with a minimum term of 13 years, by Justice Amanda Yip. During the sentencing Ava's 18-year-old sister, Mia, spoke to the court about her "loving" sister.
