Mum 'failed to help injured son, 3, who died two days after her boyfriend beat him at home'
A MUM is accused of leaving her own son, three, to die after her boyfriend beat him so badly his bowel was severed, a court has heard.
The blow is said to have injured Riley so severely that his bowel was severed, spilling his stomach contents internally, which caused peritonitis - a life-threatening infection.This would have caused severe pain which "would have been obvious to the person who caused the injury or any adult who saw him after the injury was sustained", Robert Smith QC explained.Riley eventually died from the peritonitis and hypovolemic shock due to fluid loss.
