Thomas Cashman, 34, refused to appear in the dock to be sentenced to life imprisonment at Manchester Crown Court after a jury found him guilty of murder.

The killer of nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel has been jailed for a minimum term of 42 years.

Sentencing Cashman, Mrs Justice Yip said: “The defendant has not acknowledged his responsibility for Olivia’s death and so has demonstrated no remorse.She said Cashman “relentlessly pursued” his target, Joseph Nee, into Olivia’s home, where the schoolgirl had left her bed after hearing the commotion.“Her last words were ‘mum, I’m scared’.

In mitigation, Mr Cooper said there was no intention to kill Olivia and said Cashman felt “there has been a lot of hysterical reporting of this case as far as he is concerned”. The bullet which killed Olivia was fired through the front door, hitting the wrist of Ms Korbel, who was trying to hold the door shut, before striking Olivia in the chest.
