How killer Thomas Cashman's extravagant lifestyle was funded through others' misery

Evil killer Thomas Cashman went to shocking lengths to kit himself out in designer clothing, reports the Liverpool Echo. He was a man who enjoyed splashing his ill gotten gains and had a reputation for wearing luxury brands.

Cashman, who murdered nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel, was yesterday jailed for a minimum of 42 years. He had refused to appear in the dock to be sentenced at Manchester Crown Court on Monday after a jury found him guilty last week of murdering the schoolgirl in her home in Dovecot, Liverpool, on August 22 last year.

He will now have more than four decades behind bars to think about how his empty lifestyle led to the point he was willing to blindly pump bullets into a family home, in a desperate bid to finish off a fellow criminal.
