Oliver Mailey will serve at least 16 years in prison before he will be considered eligible for parole
Oliver Mailey, 26, was handed a minimum sentence of 16 years at Preston Crown Court before he will be eligible to apply for parole. Handing the sentence, Justice Cotter said Mailey had 'lied to save his own skin', effectively placing himself before his seriously injured baby.
When Mailey turned the camera onto Abel, Ms Gorton saw that the baby boy was limp on his father's lap. She quickly told Mailey to call for an ambulance. Mailey and his partner were arrested on suspicion of GBH and later murder following Abel's death. On December 2022, Mailey admitted to manslaughter. In the week between the two incidents, the family's health visitor voiced their concerns to both parents about the dangers of shaking a baby during a routine visit to the home. The court head how Mailey was a landscaper and regularly used cannabis.
