Armed police surrounded a man convicted of murdering Olivia-Pratt Korbel before he is sentenced today.
Thomas Cashman will learn his fate at Manchester Crown Court today (Monday) after a jury convicted him of murder last week. He shot dead the nine-year-old inside her own home in Dovecot, Liverpool, on August 22 last year.
Cashman will receive a life imprisonment after being unanimously convicted. The Liverpool Echo reports how Justice Amanda Yip, who presided over his trial, will be required to set a minimum term which the 34-year-old must serve behind bars before he is considered eligible for release.
