Woman jailed for murder of two-year-old son
A County Antrim woman has been jailed for a minimum of 20 years for the murder and attempted murder of her two sons.
Noting that the youngest child would also have died if it had not been for the intervention of the emergency services, Judge Patricia Smyth also imposed a life sentence for the attempted murder. The woman originally pleaded not guilty to the offences and put forward a defence of diminished responsibility at a trial earlier this year.When that medical defence proved unsustainable after examination by medical experts, she changed her pleas to guilty on both counts."A young and innocent life was taken, leaving a loving father and family distraught and truly heartbroken.
