The family of tragic Solaine Thornton were just two weeks away from coming to see family for the first time since Covid struck, The Mirror has learned.
Solaine, 11, was allegedly gunned down by neighbour Dirk Raats, 71, while the Thorntons enjoyed a barbecue in their home on Saturday.
Her parents Adrian, 52 and Rachael, 49, were also shot in the horrific attack in the sleepy French hamlet of Saint-Herbot, Brittany.
