A mother has been convicted of killing her one-year-old son after authorities were alerted to their well-being at home. Emma Barnett, aged 36, had previously denied the charge but was found guilty following an 18-day trial at Cambridge Crown Court.
The incident unfolded on November 8, 2024, when emergency services responded to concerns about the mother and child. Initially reported missing, there were suspicions that the mother had taken the child to Epping Forest.
Later that same day, police entered the residence and discovered the mother and child in the attic. Despite their efforts, the mother refused to come down.
