Hi, I.m looking for info that was probably in Liverpool papers in 1947 0R 48, maybe earlier.
John James Brady was trying to get money at the National Assistance Board, when he killed the young man aged 23, who was supposed to be helping him, but repeatedly called him a scrounger. Brady could have been still traumatized from the war, and the younger members of the family now, often wonder what happened to him. Did the courts take that into consideration? Was he put in an institution or sent to a regular prison?
Anyone willing to look through papers or court records for me, if that's possible?

That would be a mammoth task without more precise information at to the actual dates
The newspapers were daily - not weekly - so that is a lot of searching. Same goes for court records

Hi Carole
I know it's a big ask, but the relative who asked me how to find out info. was only 7 or 8 years old at the time, and there's no one left who knows more detail, sorry.
