Seven years on from the shooting that rocked south Liverpool, no one has been convicted
A man released from prison was shot dead in a "professional execution" compared to the "Wild West" just weeks later.
He died of his injuries in hospital later that night. A senior barrister later described the shooting as a "professional, planned execution in a quiet suburban road in south Liverpool". He added: "This is not the Wild West. It is your city." He was shot the day after the second of those trips. The investigation, carried out by the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman , found he was sent to the Southwood Bail Hostel, Aigburth, before checks were made to make sure he would be safe there. It was only after he had arrived that staff were able to confirm no known rival gang members were living there.
While police had concerns over what Brown would do on his release from prison, those close to him believed he had wanted to put his past behind him. He had successfully completed a course tackling alcohol and drug issues in jail and the PPO report highlighted his focus appeared to be on his family. Police investigations have proved fruitless in terms of seeking a conviction for Brown's killers - and seven years on, they remain at large.
