Olivia Pratt-Korbel murder trial shown CCTV of moments before and after fatal shooting
The jury in the trial of a man accused of murdering nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel in Liverpool has been shown CCTV images of the moments before and after the fatal shooting.
Police investigator Caleb Suggitt told the court that the man is out of shot for more than 30 minutes, but he remained in the area. “The person alleged to be Thomas Cashman stood somewhere within the area, not seen, for 36 minutes 56 seconds," he told the court. The jury was told that Nee then ran towards the Korbel family home and was chased by his attacker, who fired through the front door, with the bullet hitting Cheryl Korbel in the hand and fatally wounding Olivia in the chest.
In Tuesday's evidence, the court heard how Olivia was standing on the stairs behind her mother when she was shot in the chest. Seconds earlier, she had been frightened out of bed and ran to her mother after hearing a commotion outside, the jury was told.
