Two men were charged with the murder of Ashley Dale five months after she was shot dead in her home.
The 28-year-old Knowsley Council environmental health officer was found unconscious in the back yard of the property on Leinster Road, Old Swan, shortly after midnight on August 21. Detectives said a gunman had burst through her front door and fired multiple shots "indiscriminately", one of which had struck Ashley in the abdomen.
Merseyside Police have previously said detectives do not believe Ashley was the intended target of the shooter, although they believed the "address was targeted".
