André Rebello, the senior coroner for Liverpool who presided over the death of 11-year-old Rhys Jones after he was shot dead in the city in August 2007, spoke of his shock that “society has not changed for the better” as he opened the inquest into the fatal shooting of another child in Merseyside; Olivia was shot when an unknown man, 35-year-old Joseph Nee, broke into her home while fleeing a gunman. The victim’s mother, Cheryl, suffered a gunshot wound to the wrist while trying to stop them from entering. Ni was shot in the leg and torso and survived the attack. The hearing was told that Merseyside Police officers “wiped and ran” with Olivia after being called to the incident in Dovecot at around 10pm on August 22. Rebello said: “Armed response officers attended and a nine-year-old child, Olivia Pratt-Korbel, was discovered with a gunshot wound to her chest. The officers grabbed and raced Olivia to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in the back of a police car. “At approximately 10:15 p.m., she was brought to the main entrance in the arms of a police officer. The officer had covered the wound on her chest with his hand and it was found that she had a weak heart, which had stopped before reaching the hospital.” He said medical teams met Olivia as she arrived at the hospital and a major trauma call was made. The schoolgirl was given cardiac massage and a rapid blood transfusion at hospital, but by 11.15pm she had no cardiac output, the coroner said. Rebello told the hearing at Gerard Majella court: “At 11.25pm, after extensive efforts by all involved, the decision was made to stop resuscitation and Olivia was confirmed dead. “I understand there is an active homicide investigation and although several arrests have been made, no one has been charged with murder.” The coroner added: “Fifteen years ago I was the coroner in Liverpool and I was told of Rees’ death. It is quite shocking that society has not changed for the better. “It’s shocking that a nine-year-old girl, with a full life ahead of her, would be shot anywhere, but to be shot in her own home, in the safety of her own home, is heinous and unforgivable.

Olivia’s death will not only affect her family and friends, but the school communities, the church communities, not only in the Knotty Ash and Dovecot areas of Liverpool but the whole city, Merseyside, and I know that throughout this people across the country are shocked by Olivia’s death.” An autopsy determined her medical cause of death was a gunshot wound to the chest, according to the inquest. He gave the body to the family for burial and adjourned the inquest to January 4. A 36-year-old man from Huyton and a 33-year-old man from Dovecot were arrested by armed police on suspicion of murder and two counts of attempted murder in connection with Olivia’s death last week and have been released on bail.
