Because she caused or permitted Isabella’s death, the toddler’s mother received a ten-year prison sentence.
Jeff, who is also 24 years old, exposed Isabella to a “cruel campaign of violence and abuse which ended in her death on June 26” last year, according to Judge Mr. Justice Neil Garnham, who sentenced the two at Ipswich Crown Court on Friday.
The court characterized Gleason-Mitchell, a former nursery worker, as a “weak and spineless person” who “stood back and let that abuse and violence happen to your little girl.”
He said that she was “so concerned about her own comfort and pleasures, and about maintaining a relationship with this man.
That you would tolerate anything, including these dreadful assaults on your daughter.” According to the judge, the two defendants had a past connection that terminated in 2019.
According to the judgment, Gleason-Mitchell had a daughter named Isabella with a man named Thomas Wheildon.
