Due to non change of diapers the baby had abrasions and eczema. The mother, from Derby, also admitted to neglecting her other 3years old child who did not eat for the same 14 hour period.

‘In interview, she accepted her son would have been in a soiled nappy and had been in the pushchair for over 14 hours and held down,’ said prosecutor Sarah Allen.
‘She felt it was the only option because she was feeling unwell.’

Despite giving her a community order lasting a year and 100 hours community service, Judge John Burgess didn’t think her actions were ‘deliberate ill-treatment’.

The children were later removed from their mother’s custody.
