Court hears 999 call after baby's body found in bin bag
Paris Mayo arrived at Worcester Crown Court on Monday to hear her brother George give evidenceA murder trial has heard a 999 call made by the mother of a teenager after her newborn's body was found in a bag.
The trial has heard Ms Mayo concealed her pregnancy from her family and gave birth to Stanley at their home in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, on 23 March, while her parents were upstairs. Asked by the call handler if the baby was beyond help, she replied: "Yes, yes," before breaking down in tears."He's just cold. He's cold. He's cold... I've wrapped him up."Giving evidence, Mr Mayo, who was 16 at the time of the baby's death, said he had been unaware his sister was pregnant, and recalled how she had been "complaining of pain" the day before the discovery.
However, when he picked it up he noticed it was "unusually heavy" and there was blood underneath, the court heard.Prosecutors allege the teenager did not want the baby and murdered him, possibly by stepping on his head, and stuffing cotton wool in his mouth.Prosecution barrister Jonas Hankin KC also asked about the siblings' relationship with their father, who died 10 days after the birth.
