Christopher Easey

Christopher Easey, 31, was jailed for 14 years for the manslaughter of his baby daughter Eleanor in 2019.

He was also found guilty of neglect and the honourable Mr Justice Murray sentencing said despite his lack of experience as a father and maturity he was "not a stupid man".

Eleanor died from a catastrophic brain injury two days after being admitted to hospital on December 18, 2019 after paramedics were called to the family home at Morton on the Hill.

Christopher Easey, of Ely Road, Little Thetford, Ely, appeared for sentence on Friday, April 29, after having been found not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter last month after more than 20 hours of deliberations.

Speaking after the sentencing, Detective Inspector Lewis Craske, senior investigating officer, said: “Christopher Easey has been found guilty of killing of his baby daughter and it is the awful truth that she died at the hands of the very man who should have taken care of her; someone who should have cared for her and shown unconditional love.

"Sadly, that wasn’t the case and little Eleanor was neglected for much if not all her very short life."
