I want violence to stop, says mum of murdered Olivia Pratt-Korbel
Olivia was fatally shot by Cashman as he chased a fellow drug dealer into her home in Dovecot, Liverpool, on the evening of 22 August 2022.
The 34-year-old, who was jailed for life and ordered to serve at least 42 years, refused to enter the dock for his sentencing hearing on Monday, a move which the judge said was "disrespectful" to Olivia's family.Olivia Pratt-Korbel's mother: "Justice has prevailed and I cannot begin to express our relief"
"Why should we go through all that and then he gets the option of not being there? It's like a kick in the teeth.", it was looking into changing the law to force offenders "to face the consequences of their actions".Ms Korbel also told the newspaper she wanted to create a memorial garden to her daughter, which would provide a "safe space" in which children could play and be taught not to "go down the wrong path" in life.
