Evil Rachel Tunstill was twice jailed for life for the murder of her daughter Mia Kelly.
A mum who was jailed after stabbing her newborn baby to death before dumping her in a kitchen bin has died in prison.
A spokesperson said: "HMP Styal prisoner Rachel Tunstill died in custody on 1 August 2023. As with all deaths in custody, the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman will investigate."Tunstill was first found guilty of murder in June 2017. She was sentenced to life in prison, but that conviction was quashed a year later by the Court of Appeal after judges ruled lesser charges should have been considered.
Liverpool Crown Court heard Tunstill gave birth while her unsuspecting boyfriend played computer games in the next room in January 2017. She told him she was having a miscarriage and asked him for scissors before stabbing Mia 14 times just after she was born, it was said. It was discovered that the baby had been born alive but died after being stabbed in the back, neck and chest.
"Her duty to her newborn baby was to cradle and comfort her - not to stab her to death. There was here in my judgement concealment of the body, albeit short-lived and in addition there was undoubtedly the indignity which was wrought upon the body by disposing of it in the way she did."
