Cowardly child killer Thomas Cashman has been denied the chance to appeal his jail sentence - as his victim's fuming mother branded the murderer 'a cheek.'
Cashman, 34, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 42 years for the murder of nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel in a botched gangland assassination attempt in Liverpool.
Olivia, a completely innocent bystander, died when the thug fired a bullet through the front door of her home in Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot, on August 22 last year.
