Mum pleads guilty to manslaughter of toddler who died after being found in pond

  • Alice Mackey, a 42-year-old woman from Oakhanger, pleaded guilty to manslaughter of her two-year-old daughter Annabel in Winchester Crown Court in October 2023.
  • The charge was brought following Annabel’s disappearance on September 10, 2023, at her residence in Kingsley, leading to a police-led search that resulted in her being found in a nearby pond.
  • Emergency services found Annabel unresponsive at Kingsley Pond and took her to hospital in serious condition, where she died the following day.
  • Psychiatric evaluations by two experts found that Mackey’s mental capacity was impaired during the incident, leading the prosecution to accept her denial of murder before the sentencing date was postponed to October 6.
  • Annabel’s father remembered her as a joyful and bright child who was deeply cherished, while Mackey was held in custody awaiting sentencing.
