Stepdad jailed for killing partner's five-month-old baby after argument with his ex-girlfriend
Morgan was jailed for life with a minimum of 19 years after shaking Jensen-Lee, causing fatal brain and spinal injuries during a rage-fueled assault, the court heard.
- On Wednesday, February 25, Mrs Justice Stacey sentenced Thomas Morgan to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 19 years after his conviction for murdering five-month-old Jensen-Lee Dougal.
- On Wednesday, February 25, Morgan was left alone with the baby during a heated 90-minute abusive text exchange with Georgia Griffiths, prosecutors said.
- Medical experts told the jury that scans showed catastrophic brain, spinal, and retinal bleeding, as well as multiple rib fractures, akin to injuries from high-velocity collisions.
- Neighbours called 999 and paramedics spent 45 minutes performing CPR, re-establishing a pulse before Jensen-Lee was taken to a specialist unit, and he died the next day in his mother's arms, according to statements 54, 55, 7, 131.
- Detective Chief Inspector Lianne Rees said the sentence brings justice for a defenceless baby boy and paid tribute to emergency and investigation teams, while NSPCC Cymru called the assault a brutal attack.
