Gunman who shot dead Olivia Pratt-Korbel, 9, jailed for at least 42 years

The gunman who shot and killed schoolgirl Olivia Pratt-Korbel was sentenced for at least 42 years for her murder. Thomas Cashman, 34, fired shots into the nine-year-old's family home in Dovecot, Liverpool, in August 2022, during what prosecutors described as a "ruthless pursuit" to execute another man. He was found guilty of Olivia's murder and the wounding with intent of her mother, Cheryl Korbel. Cashman got 10 years for attacking Ms Korbel. A jury at Manchester Crown Court also found him guilty of the attempted murder of Joseph Nee, a convicted drug dealer who he had chased into Olivia's home before opening fire. Cashman was sentenced to life with a minimum term of 22 years for that offence. Cashman also got 18 years each for two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life. All these terms will run concurrently, meaning Cashman will be aged in his mid-70s before he is even considered for parole. He refused to appear in the dock for sentencing, saying he did not want to attend because he was aware the CPS were singing We Are The Champions following the verdict in the 19-day trial. The judge, Mrs Justice Yip, said she regarded his lack of attendance as "disrespectful" to not only the court but those interested in proceedings, including the family of the deceased. She said: "The defendant has not acknowledged his responsibility for Olivia's death and so has demonstrated no remorse. His failure to come into court is further evidence of that."
