The family of a man killed in a gang robbery said he was “in the summer of his life” and hoped to become a dad.
Thomas Edmunds was killed after he was put in a chokehold as three men and a teenager, all of whom he knew, attacked him to steal cash for drugs and alcohol.
Kevin Nethercote, Terence Bennett and Kevin Condliffe were all jailed last week for conspiracy to rob while Thomas Broadhurst, who put Mr Edmunds in the chokehold, was jailed for manslaughter.
