A evil beast has been found guilty of the horrendous abuse of a seven week old baby including sexual penetration.
Christopher Phillips has been found guilty of the most serious offences in the devastating case of seven-week-old Baby C, including multiple counts of penetration and causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
The jury’s verdicts confirm Phillips was responsible for the catastrophic injuries inflicted on Baby C in January 2021, including a bleed on the brain, multiple fractures, severe bruising, blunt-force trauma to a testicle and anal injuries described in court as “gaping”.
The baby’s mother, who cannot be named, has been cleared of every charge, including allegations that she failed to protect her child.
The verdicts were delivered at Swansea Crown Court following a harrowing three-week trial.
Following the verdicts, Judge Paul Thomas KC delivered an emotional statement rarely heard from the bench.
He told the courtroom: “In my over forty years of experience, this has been the most distressing case I have ever had to deal with.
“This has truly shaken me to my core.”
Turning to the jury, he said: “I would like to show my admiration to you all. I appreciate the toll this may have had on your mental health. You are a testament to our jury system. Thank you for all of your great effort.”
Judge Thomas ordered a pre-sentence report and requested an updated assessment of Baby C’s current physical and psychological health following the injuries he sustained.
He also directed that a psychiatric evaluation be prepared on Phillips to determine the level of danger he poses and to assist in setting the appropriate sentence.
He warned Phillips that he is facing “an extremely long prison sentence”.
Phillips will also be required to sign the Sex Offenders Register within three days of arriving in prison.
Medical specialists told the court they had administered morphine to a baby so young only “a handful of times” in their careers.
A sentencing will take place on January 16.
He was remanded tp prison
