Our Liverpool: 'Beautiful' daughter 'was and always will be 22'

Hello and welcome to Our Liverpool.

Today the man who killed 22-year-old Rebecca Steer, a former Liverpool John Moores student, was jailed for life after he crushed her with his car. Stephen McHugh, from Fazakerley, took cocaine and downed 10 double shots and drank six beers before getting in his car on Sunday, October 9 last year.

Before he was sentenced, Rebecca's family spoke about how she will "always be 22" and spoke about the "stupidity" which left them without their beloved daughter and sister. They said: "Becca was and always will be 22 in our hearts, beautiful and amazing."
