Territorial Army Corporal Found Guilty of Manslaughter in Toddler’s Death at Southwark Court

Scott O'Connor and Zoe Coutts were convicted after Kol Page suffered sustained abuse leading to catastrophic brain damage and death two years later, prosecutors said.

  • On Wednesday, a Southwark Crown Court jury convicted Zoe Coutts, 35, of allowing the death of her child, Kol Page, while finding her former boyfriend, Scott O'Connor, 36, guilty of manslaughter.
  • Prosecutors proved the pair subjected four-year-old Kol to "sustained abuse" at their Bromley home, with O'Connor present 28 times in the month preceding the April 2022 attack.
  • Jurors reviewed text messages where O'Connor told Coutts to "slap him back to sleep lol," while the couple later claimed Kol's injuries resulted from his own "clumsiness.
