Oh, god i noticed this story as the pub is named after my town. There have been so many cases, if i may put it like that, which have resulted in the death of a child. I can't comprehend why parents choose to abuse and neglect their children.
..I fail to understand how any person would allow their partner to abuse their child and have the heart to let it happen. I find it worse when both parents both jointly enjoy abusing their children.
A suggestion to deter future cases of this would be capital punishment. I don't buy the fact that these people must be mentally ill. If this was the case, social services would have removed the poor child from their care as soon as she was born.. unless, as so often the social services have not bothered to investigate this claim. I wonder?
If i was the prosecution judge i would pass sentance that these two

be starved, beaten and shot!
