24-day-old baby dies of brain hemorrhage after being abused by cocaine addict mother and her partner
The Winchester Crown Court heard the gruesome details entailing the death of 24-day-old baby Stanley Davis with the mother, 30-year-old Roxanne Davis, and her former partner, 24-year-old Samuel Davies, accused of mistreating the infant. Stanley died of a skull fracture and brain hemorrhage on March 28, 2017, and was also found to have suffered 32 fractures to his ribs as well as nine fractures to his arms and legs.
Speaking out against Davis and Davies, prosecuting James Newton-Price QC told the court, "We say Stanley was unlawfully killed by the violent actions of one of these two defendants. One of these two defendants inflicted fatal injuries to Stanley's head, causing a skull fracture and a brain hemorrhage from which he could not recover."
