Thomas Cashman is aiming to have his sentence for the killing of Olivia Pratt-Korbel reduced. The 34-year-old was jailed for a minimum of 42 years for gunning down the nine-year-old in Liverpool in August last year.
But a Court of Appeal official has now confirmed that drug-dealer Cashman is looking to appeal his sentence. The official said: “We received an application for leave to appeal the claimant’s sentence yesterday.” No application has been made in relation to Cashman’s conviction for murder.
A single appeal court judge will now decide if the thug should be given the opportunity to appeal, the Mirror reports. If he is, the case will be heard by three judges sitting at the Court of Appeal Criminal Division.
