Stephen Angell Jr was subjected to harrowing mistreatment before he passed away aged just three months. His parents were found to have caused him unnecessary suffering, including exposing him to drugs.
A couple who neglected their baby in the months before his tragic death have been jailed for a total of four years.
Sheriff Colin Dunipace blasted the couple for showing no remorse for the treatment of their child and jailed them for two years each. She had concerns about nutrition after he gained 100g in three days under medical supervision but was struggling to gain weight at home. During one exchange, the parents were advised to increase the amount of baby formula they were feeding him but callous Angell replied: "If it isn't broke, don't fix it."
