- Today at Cheshire Coroner's Court in Warrington, the coroner found Lucy Harrison was unlawfully killed on grounds of gross negligence manslaughter.

- Inside the bedroom, Mr Harrison admitted he removed a nine-millimetre Glock from the lockbox seconds before a loud bang and Lucy was shot.
- Following the inquest, relatives criticized the Prosper Police Department investigation as lacking rigour, despite a US grand jury declining to bring charges after reviewing evidence in June last year.
