Family pay tribute to 'talented musician' Adrian Swift after woman is jailed for his murder

The family of a musician from Liverpool who died after being assaulted at his home have paid tribute to him, after a woman was jailed for his murder.

Adrian Swift died at his home in Wavertree in March 2021.

A day before his death, he had been the victim of a violent assault for which he received hospital treatment before discharging himself and returning home.

"Despite what you thought, you were always valued and loved. May you now finally rest in peace Ade, we will continue to keep your memory alive.

"Love always x."
