Following the sentencing of Emma Walsh for the brutal murder of Gary Morgan, domestic abuse charities have spoken out on the incident in a bid to help those who may be suffering.
Yesterday (Monday, October 17) Emma Walsh was jailed for life with a minimum term of 18 years after she knifed Gary Morgan to death at her home on Lavan Close in Everton. It was heard in court that Walsh and Mr Morgan had been in a relationship for around a year and a half before the fatal night.
Sentencing, the Honorary Recorder of Liverpool Judge Andrew Menary KC described Mr Morgan as a "kind, quiet and considerate man" who was "loved by all", saying: “You were making his life an utter misery. For little or no reason, but typically when you were drunk, your temper explodes and Gary Morgan was often on the receiving end.
