Thomas Cashman trial

[VicksterIcon]

From the Sky News report:

"In a separate trial, a man has admitted to driving Cashman away from an address, where he fled after the shooting last August, and disposing of his clothing.

Paul Russell, 41, pleaded guilty to assisting an offender at Liverpool Crown Court last October. The media were prevented from reporting his plea until the conclusion of Cashman's trial.

He is also said to have disposed of a bag given to him by Cashman, which he believed to contain clothing."

I know a few of the girlfriends family, a lot of them gave her the ultimatum of its him or us and of course she chose him

I hope she doesn’t stand by him now he’s known as a child killer

I’m so pleased for Olivia’s loved ones that justice has been done. May you rest in eternal peace Olivia

How rough does he look there compared to the turkey teeth picture they constantly share of him, ugly bleep

Wow I’m shocked! But so pleased for her family.

Just goes to show its impossible to get a feel for a case from updates via the echo. Maybe that witness was believable after all. I reckon that Nicky Mchale did more harm then good!

So Paul Russell has pleaded guilty…. Why not give a statement or go on the stand if you’ve already admitted it

The state on it.

Ok maybe a dumb question, would the jury have know Paul Russell pleaded guilty?

His skank of a girlfriend can look forward to being a Tik Tok prison wife now, nothing else going for her.

Thank you all for keeping us up to date on this and for your insights and questions. I found it hard to keep up with the Echo updates so relied on this thread for updates. Going to miss seeing you all post. Like the idea of the minute silence for Olivia at 7pm. or light a candle maybe?

It says the info wasn't made public until the verdict of Cashman's trial was made

 

[Jellybean79]

How could Paul Russell plead guilty to assisting an offender if that person at the time hadn’t been found guilty?

If you google the case in October it come out he pleaded not guilty, probably for this reason so the jury didn’t get wind

The witness must of been Stevie Wonder to be obsessed with that

 

[Stimpii]

So glad he’s been found guilty. It’s too close to home for me. I grew up around that area and have family that still live there. Olivia went to the same school as my nephews (my old school).

 

[Brummiebird]

Looking at his old Facebook account from pre 2014, there’s quite a few interesting names in his friends list.

Really surprised by the verdict based on what we the public have read but like a poster said above, the experience the jurors get is a lot different to ours. Thoughts are with Olivia’s family.

Of course she will the stupid bint. She must have known all along

I wondered this too! Seems backward to me.
