That is such a horrific case and I would gladly kill that woman with my bare hands if given the opportunity- seriously. She is fucking evil.Gob wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 8:09 amA man has been jailed for 21 years and his partner for a minimum of 29 years over the torture and killing of his six-year-old son, Arthur Labinjo-Hughes.
Emma Tustin, 32, murdered the boy by causing a fatal head injury at her home in Solihull on 16 June last year.
She photographed him lying on the floor, sending the image to his father Thomas Hughes, 29.
Hughes was convicted of the boy's manslaughter.
Sentencing, Justice Mark Wall QC told Coventry Crown Court the case was "one of the most distressing and disturbing" he had ever dealt with.
He said neither defendant had shown any remorse and their behaviour had been "spiteful and sadistic".
One of the most troubling aspects, he added, was that Tustin's own two children "lived a perfectly happy life in that house" just yards from where Arthur was subjected to unthinkable abuse.
The trial heard Arthur had been poisoned with salt, subjected to regular beatings, denied food and drink and made to stand for hours alone in the hallway.
Jurors were told Tustin carried out a fatal assault by violently shaking the schoolboy and repeatedly banging his head on a hard surface, and while Hughes was not present then, he was culpable in the death as he "encouraged" violence against his son and dealt out beatings.
The judge told the pair "the cruel and inhuman treatment of Arthur was a deliberate decision by you to brush off his cries for help as naughtiness".
He said they had "dehumanised" the boy, adding: "The less human he seemed to be, the more freedom you had to abuse him."
The nanny cam video of that poor child, crying ‘nobody loves me, nobody is going to feed me’ as he starved in a room locked away from the rest of the family, has haunted me for weeks. There is nothing that could happen to that woman in prison that would be too cruel or more than she deserves.
