Ex-lover told to 'calm down' by judge after Thomas Cashman questions

A witness who claims murder accused Thomas Cashman came to her home the night Olivia Pratt-Korbel was killed has been told to "calm down" by a judge while giving evidence.

Olivia, nine, died after being shot in the chest in her own home on Kingsheath Avenue in Dovecot on the evening of August 22 last year. Cashman, 34 and of Grenadier Drive in West Derby, denies any involvement in the shooting.

The woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had what she describes as a "fling" with Cashman. She told John Cooper, KC, defending, they had been friends to begin with before becoming "friends with benefits".
