Two convicted child killers have been given extra jail time after being found guilty of the murder of a woman who died 20 months after the same arson attack killed four of her children.
Zak Bolland, 26, and David Worrall, 28, were both jailed for 40 years and 37 years on Wednesday for the murder of Michelle Pearson, 37, following a trial at Manchester Crown Court.
The pair were already serving four life sentences with a minimum of 40 years for Bolland and 37 years for Worrall for the murders of her four children following a trial in 2018.
They had denied the murder of Mrs Pearson, claiming they had been wrongly convicted of murdering her children.
