Mother poisons infant after custody loss
A British court has sentenced a mother from Essex to life imprisonment after she was convicted of killing her 14-month-old baby by giving him a mixture of prescribed medications in his milk and juice bottles, which led to his death. The crime occurred just hours after a court order was issued to place the child in social care, and the mother tried to hide her whereabouts before being found hiding inside her home. Investigations revealed that the accused had added allergy and antidepressant medicines to the child's drink, causing him to become poisoned and subsequently die. Police and security agencies conducted a widespread search for her before locating her in the attic, where she confessed to killing her child. The baby passed away at the end of December 2024. The court sentenced her to life in prison with a minimum term of 22 years.
