A mother and her partner have admitted starving a two-year-old toddler to death at a filthy flat in Scotland.

Margaret Wade, 38, and Marie Sweeney, 37, left Lauren Wade without proper food or care for months before the youngster died in hospital in March 2015.

A court heard how Lauren was dirty, severely underweight and riddled with head lice in a flat described by one detective as the worst he had ever seen.

Prosecutor Bill McVicar said the case involved 'the same basic ill treatment and neglect' of Lauren and two other children, who survived.

This included not keeping the youngsters clean as well as not providing proper food, clothes and medical care.

Mr McVicar said: 'The most significant effect of the failure to provide a proper diet is the malnutrition of Lauren which caused complications leading to her death.'

The court heard Lauren was 'plainly unwell' and 'emaciated' for days before she died.

She was rushed to hospital after she was found 'unresponsive' on March 20, 2015, but was pronounced dead just 30 minutes later.

Tiny Lauren was described as 'skinny, dirty and unkempt' at the time, and also had a sodden nappy, bald patches and 'thousands' of head lice.

Mr McVicar said: 'Paramedics later noticed that the cover she had been lying on was covered in lice and fleas. They had to clean and decontaminate the ambulance.'

Wade told nurses Lauren had been suffering from a virus for a couple of days.

Mr McVicar said: 'She kept her hood up to disguise her own infestation of head lice. She appeared dirty and smelled of body odour.'

The jobless duo were later charged by police - after Wade said she had 'no guilt' over the death - and the pair today faced a culpable homicide allegation at the High Court in Glasgow.

But prosecutors accepted their guilty pleas to an amended charge of the wilful ill-treatment and neglect of Lauren. They also admitted to the same crime in connection with the other two children.

Police probed the horrific living conditions Lauren and the other children had been subjected to. One detective who later viewed the Foutainwell Drive flat branded it 'one of the most disgusting houses' he had visited in his police career.

The court heard it was littered with rubbish, leftover food, dirty plates and clothes. There were also 'hundreds' of insects and flies due to the stinking mess.

Two mothers whose two-year-old daughter starved to death in their filthy, lice-infested flat have been locked up for neglect.

Margaret Wade, 38, and Marie Sweeney, 37, left little Lauren Wade to rot in the "disgusting" home with no proper food or care for months.

The toddler was dirty, severely underweight and riddled with "thousands" of head lice before her death, a court heard.

She was raced to hospital in March 2015 after being found“unresponsive”, but was pronounced dead around 30 minutes later.

One detective described the flat the tot lived in with Wade and Sweeney in Glasgow, Scotland, as one of the worst he'd ever seen.

Last month, the parents admitted the wilful ill-treatment and neglect of Lauren and two other children, who survived.

They had been originally charged with culpable homicide, but prosecutors accepted their plea to the lesser count.

And today, the pair, who had been together for 15 years, were jailed for a total of nearly 13 years at Glasgow's High Court.

They were each sentenced to six years and four months behind bars.

The two cunts showed no emotion as they were led to the cells in handcuffs after being jailed.

Wouldn’t want to be either of their smell mates. But at least they’ll get de loused. Well, they always do in movies anyhow.
 
The fact that the girl was covered in lice is enough alone for these 2 to die. I can barely stand the thought of even one on me... or near me for that matter. Fucking Gross.
 
An evil mum jailed for leaving her toddler to starve to death in a filthy flat has been released early from prison.

Margaret Wade subjected two-year-old daughter Lauren to improper care for months to the extent she was left "skinny and dirty" and infested with lice when she died.

The 41-year-old parent - who was convicted of neglect along with her partner, Marie Sweeney, 40 - at the time told police she had "no guilt" over the child's death.

The couple were both jailed for six years and four months each in 2019 - but Wade was allowed to walk out of prison last month a free woman, reports the Daily Record.

It comes as a Fatal Accident Inquiry will uncover the horrifying details that led to child's death later this summer.

An emergency call had been made on March 20, 2015 to the couple's home in Sighthill, Glasgow, where paramedics found Lauren "unresponsive".

She was so thin her shoulders and backbone were visible through her skin, the palms of her hands and feet were black and her baby teeth were decaying.

She was wearing a sodden nappy and her scalp had bald patches and a severe lice infestation.

Despite being rushed to hospital, she was pronounced dead around 30 minutes later.

The toddler had been lying on a cover riddled with lice and fleas and was so dirty that medics had to later clean and decontaminate the ambulance.

Wade and Sweeney pleaded guilty to the reduced charge of neglecting the toddler between June 2014 and March 2015.

Darren Fleming, representing Wade, was asked by sheriff principal Craig Turnbull whether she will appear.

He replied: "She doesn't wish to, she was released on parole at the start of March after a lengthy hearing."

Wade & Sweeney
 
So Scotland sucks like the rest of us, huh? For some reason no one ever does a life snetence for taking a life if it's a child. It's like they are viewed as incomplete humans or property. I say lock them up for life and only give enough food to prevent their deaths. Let them know a hunger that can never be satiated. They should know this child's agony before she left this earth.
