A man has been found guilty of murdering nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel in Liverpool last year after he chased a convicted drug dealer into her home.
Thomas Cashman, of West Derby, admitted being a “high-level” cannabis dealer but denied being the gunman in the incident, which also injured Olivia’s mother Cheryl Korbel, 46, and Joseph Nee, the intended target, in Dovecot on 22 August.
The 34-year-old was handed the verdict at Manchester Crown Court on Thursday, following a three-and-a-half week trial.
Cashman was also found guilty of the attempted murder of Nee, wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm to Ms Korbel, and two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.
