Michael Wild, 30, was found guilty of the murder of 22-month-old Ella-Rose Clover and was sentenced to life in prison and will serve a minimum of 20 years behind bars.

Sharleen Hughes, 36, was found guilty of causing or allowing the death of a child and two counts of perverting the course of justice. TBS

On Sunday 21 January 2018, Ella-Rose was rushed to hospital by paramedics after suffering from a medical episode but despite the best efforts of paramedics the toddler tragically passed away.

Detectives were immediately alerted to suspicious circumstances by hospital staff and an investigation was launched.

Over the course of inquiries, officers found that Ella-Rose was often entrusted in the care of Wild and Hughes – the toddlers Godmother and a close family friend.

The court heard how on Friday 19 January, Hughes collected Ella-Rose from her mother to look after her for the weekend.

She was wearing a bandage around her head to cover a wound to her ear which was later determined to have been inflicted by Wild the previous weekend.

Early on Sunday morning, Hughes left Ella-Rose alone with Wild.

When she returned a couple of hours later, she found Ella-Rose on the sofa in cardiac arrest with Wild sat on the opposite side of the room.

She immediately called for an ambulance who instructed her on how to deliver CPR. When paramedics arrived, no-one was tending to the baby girl and she was left alone on the sofa.

Inquiries found that Wild had abused Ella-Rose on several occasions, inflicting blows to her abdomen and leaving her requiring surgery.

A Home Office post mortem determined that the baby girl died as a result of internal bleeding and cardiac arrest.

“Ella-Rose was systematically beaten over a long period of time by Wild – made even worse by the fact that it was concealed from her mother who regularly took her baby to the hospital over concerns for unexplained cuts and bruises.

“Wild and Hughes betrayed Ella-Rose and her family in the most horrific way imaginable. Hughes was also given the honor of being the baby girl’s godmother, a title she had absolutely no right to bare.

“Prison is the only place for people like Wild and whilst there is nothing we can do to bring Ella-Rose back, I hope today’s result, and whatever result we have on Wednesday, goes some way to helping her family move forward with their lives.”

Omg. Please...please give me 20 minutes with a vice and hammer and the two of them in a cell. Fuck it, throw mom in there and we make it a proper gathering.
 
I am having a hard time understanding why the mom would keep sending her child back to a place where they were hurt.

Even if you did not want to believe they were abusing the child you should at least think they are not supervising the child.

Soooo she'd already been beaten bad enough to require surgery and no one looked into it until after she died? Hospital should have been mandated to look into how a toddler was so badly smooshed internally that they need to open her up to fix it.

I call bullshit on the mom not knowing. She had to have suspected where the bruises and other stuff was coming from but my guess is she wanted her alone time on the weekends more than she wanted that baby. My baby sustains a head wound serious enough that her whole head needs to be bandaged?...Im staying home tending to my precious loin fruit not pawning her off. And if I absolutely had to leave for whatever reason.. I definitely wouldn't be giving her back to the same people who were supposed to be caring for her when she recieved the wound.
 
What a dumb twat mom....my baby girl (2) gets a random bruise and its the spanish inquistion up in my house let me tell ya and its only me and my other kids (20, 19 and 11) here

Instead of caring for 22-month-old Ella-Rose Clover, Sharleen Hughes allowed her then-partner Michael Wild to beat the child to death.

Today, the mum-of-two was jailed for five years at Liverpool Crown Court.

A judge sentencing Hughes said she should have been aware of the risk her then-partner posed to little Ella-Rose.

Hughes, 36, was the cousin and close friend of Ella's mother, Pagan Clover, who was paid to look after the little girl while the young mum went to work.

Hughes was also Ella's Godmother, such was her close friendship with the tot's mum.

Michael Hayton, QC, defending, said that Hughes has no previous convictions and has two sons, aged 14 and 17, from whom she will be separated and on her release will have restrictions applying to her contact with the younger boy.

Stupid pathetic sentence. And why the restrictions on the younger boy? He’s fricking 14 now so he’ll be over 18 when she’s released. Even if she serves half he’ll be 16-doubt she’s going to mess with someone who can fight back or talk.
 
Do British lawyers just go through the motions?

Who cares about this woman being separated from her "still alive" children that she will have limited contact with.

It is more than what Ella's mother has.
