Twins looking for long lost mum searched online and discovered she was murdered just two days earlier

Twins discovered their long lost mother had been savagely murdered just two days before they began their desperate attempt to be reunited. Heartbroken brothers Curtis and Lewis Nickle made an attempt to find mum Maxine Showers by Googling her name on September 30 last year.

The pair were left horrified after finding out the tragic 42-year-old sex worker had been killed and dumped in an alleyway by twisted client Michael Williams.

The 29-year-old, who admitted manslaughter but claimed he did not murder the Liverpool mum, was today jailed for life with a minimum of 22 years behind bars, after jurors found him guilty.
