A man has been found guilty of murdering his girlfriend as she screamed for help in their flat. Police had been called to Liam Cain and Courtney Boorne's flat after neighbours saw her climbing onto the window ledge and screaming 'he won't let me out'.
When officers arrived, however, Courtney was found unconscious and died in hospital that evening. Today (July 19), Cain was found unanimously guilty of murder by a jury of four men and eight women after only one hour and nine minutes of deliberations.
Cain had strangled the 20-year-old to death. The victim's family were seen in tears and embraced in the public gallery at Liverpool Crown Court after the verdict was delivered.
Cain, who showed no reaction, is expected to be sentenced on Friday, the Echo reports. The court previously heard that Ms Boorne had phoned her mum Cheryl at around 3.30pm on December 23 2022.
