Thomas Cashman to be kept in isolation for his own safety after mobsters put £250k hit on Olivia Pratt-Korbel's killer | The Sun

THOMAS Cashman will be placed in prison isolation for his own protection. 

The gunman was today sentenced to life behind bars for the murder of nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel in Liverpool in August last year.


The Sun earlier revealed how gangsters have put a £250,000 bounty on his head amid fears he will shop other criminals. 

He is said to be "public enemy number one" inside Strangeways Prison in Manchester where he has spent the last few months. 

Following his sentencing at Manchester Crown Court, where he refused to appear in the dock, he faces time in isolation to keep him away from those wanting to harm him. 

One criminal in particular will be keeping an eye on the killer once inside.
