Emmerdale spoilers: Liv Flaherty terrorised over Ben Tucker’s murder

FOLLOWING her recent release from prison, Liv Flaherty adjusts to normal life in the Dales.
But this proves to be a challenge in Emmerdale as the Hop barista gets terrorised by teenagers over Ben Tucker's murder.
In December, 2021, Liv (played by Isobel Steele) was put behind bars, suspected of being responsible for Ben's death.
Prison life eventually came to an end for the youngster as boyfriend Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) went above and beyond to have her released, even encouraging Manpreet Sharma (Rebecca Sarker) to reach out to the police herself.
With Valentine's Day fast approaching, Vinny is planning a day to remember in upcoming scenes of the ITV soap due on our screens next week.
Liv may have left prison but she surely can't escape the past nor the rumours that have tarnished her name.

In the Hide, Liv is shocked to see when some teenagers ask to take a picture with her due to her being "famous" for allegedly killing Ben.
A witness to the scene, Laurel Thomas (Charlotte Bellamy) defends Liv and throws the teens out of the Hide.
Later on, Liv can count on Vinny's Valentine's Day planning to keep her mind off of the teenagers as the couple happily play video games.
Yet things take another turn when Vinny presents Liv with a jewellery box…
Liv was the perfect criminal in the eyes of the law.
The character went through hell in prison, left out in the cold by Chas Dingle (Lucy Pargeter) and even her brother Aaron (Danny Miller) who left the eponymous village after doubting her innocence.
Recovering from an alcohol addiction, Liv notably suffered a beating after another inmate refused to get her a drink.
Little did the authorities know that they had arrested an innocent person while the real murderer, Meena Jutla (Paige Sandhu), was roaming free, well under their radar.
