Paul Russell to be sentenced today for helping Thomas Cashman cover up Olivia's murder

Paul Russell will appear in court today to be sentenced for attempting to cover up the murder of Olivia Pratt-Korbel.

The 41-year-old helped killer Thomas Cashman get rid of clothes he worn during the shooting and drove him back to his van. Cashman shot the nine-year-old inside her own home, on Kingsheath Avenue, in Dovecot, on August 22 last year.

During his trial, the jury heard how he “lay in wait” with two guns to attack Joseph Nee, 36. When his intended victim ran towards the Korbels’ open front door, Cashman followed and fired.
