THE hitman who killed Olivia Pratt-Korbel still demanded half his £100,000 fee.
Evil Thomas Cashman, 34, was hired to kill drug dealer Joseph Nee, 36.
He shot him as he walked home from a pal’s house last August.
But Cashman’s gun then jammed and Nee ran into nine-year-old Olivia’s home in Dovecot, Liverpool, to save himself.
Cashman chased him and fired blindly round the door, killing Olivia and injuring her mum Cheryl Korbel, 46.

A source said the hit was ordered on Nee after he racked up a drugs debt with a crime family.
And he said Cashman was so unconcerned that Olivia had died that he demanded half the cash he was owed as he had wounded Nee.
The source said: “Cashman has no heart. He claimed in court to be a cannabis dealer but everyone knows he was a hitman who thought nothing of putting a bullet in someone.
“He was so desperate to kill Nee that he chased him into Olivia’s home and carried on firing.
“Everyone knew that Olivia had been fatally wounded but he didn’t seem to care, despite being a dad himself.
“He even asked for half of the money because although he didn’t manage to kill Nee, he put him in hospital.
“All he was bothered about was the money.”
Cashman, of West Derby, Liverpool, was convicted of murder yesterday and will be sentenced on Monday.
