The mum of Rhys Jones' killer has been jailed for a second time after helping to cover her sons' crimes.
Janette Mercer was locked up for three years in 2009 after lying to detectives investigating the horrific murder of 11-year-old Rhys in Liverpool. Her son Sean Mercer, then aged 16, shot and killed him in August 2007.
He was jailed for life with a minimum term of 22 years. Yesterday (February 6), the mum was jailed again after helping another one of her children Joseph Mercer to remain at large while he was wanted for dealing drugs, the Liverpool Echo reports.
