Olivia Pratt-Korbel murderer Thomas Cashman's jail sentence will not be extended

Olivia Pratt-Korbel's killer will not see his 42-year jail term extended, the government has said.

Cashman was ordered to serve the sentence after being found guilty of the nine-year-old's murder last month. She died after being shot in her own home by the gunman in Dovecot last summer.

Following the verdict, the Attorney General's office received requests from members of the public who believed the jail term was not long enough to refer Cashman's sentence to the Court of Appeal under the Unduly Lenient Sentence Scheme.
