A killer who stabbed her boyfriend to death after a night out has been sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 18 years. Emma Walsh knifed partner Gary Morgan in the chest at her home on Lavan Close in Everton on the evening of April 10 this year.
It took jurors just one hour and 37 minutes to return a guilty verdict on Friday, October 14. The 31-year-old then returned to Liverpool Crown Court for her sentencing this morning.
Walsh sat with her back to the public gallery for the entirety of the hearing, the Liverpool Echo reports. Sentencing, the Honorary Recorder of Liverpool Judge Andrew Menary KC said: "You and he had been in a relationship for about a year before that fatal night. The relationship began well enough, and there will have been good times.
