Man accused of Olivia Pratt-Korbel murder: 'was friend of alleged target'
March 22, 2023
|The Guardian
A man accused of murdering nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel told a court yesterday that he was friends with the alleged target of the shooting and denied "scoping out" an attack.
Thomas Cashman, 34, is accused of fatally shooting Olivia when he allegedly chased a convicted burglar, Joseph Nee, into her family home and opened fire last August.
Cashman, of West Derby, Liverpool, denies Olivia's murder, the attempted murder of Nee, wounding with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm on Olivia's mother, and two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.
A jury has been told that Nee was the "intended target" of the attack but that it had gone "horribly wrong".
Cashman, giving evidence in his defence yesterday, told Manchester crown court he was friends with the Nee family and had been at their house the day before the fatal shooting.
