Sam Maslin, the mother of murderer Asher Maslin, says she will never talk to her son again if he does not drop his appeal against his 24-year sentence.
How does it feel to discover that your son has committed a murder? SAM MASLIN was driving home from work, listening to the radio on 18th February earlier this year when she heard that an un-named woman had been stabbed to death in a hair salon in Gloucester. She says she knew immediately that the woman who had been stabbed was Hollie Gazzard, and that the killer was Hollie's ex-boyfriend, her son - Asher.
We speak to Sam Maslin, in July her son Asher was sentenced to a minimum of 24 years in jail for the murder of Hollie. He stabbed her 14 times in a hairdressers infront of her customers. She tells us if he doesn't drop his appeal into the length of the sentence she will never speak to him again.
