A teenager accused of murdering his girlfriend walked out of the dock during his trial this afternoon.
Liam Cain is currently facing a jury at Liverpool Crown Court accused of the murder of his partner Courtney Boorne. The 20-year-old died on December 23 last year after being discovered unresponsive at the couple's flat on Quarry Green Heights in Kirkby.
The trial continued for a third day today, Wednesday. But, as pathologist Dr Paul Johnson began to give evidence from the witness box concerning the post-mortem investigation he conducted, Cain got up from his seat in the dock and left to return to the cells.
