A baby girl has been pictured for the first time as her mum goes on trial accused of her murder.
Laura Lee Langley, 37, appeared in the dock at Preston Crown Court before The Honourable Mr Justice Morris and a jury of four men and eight women today . Langley, of Belgrave Road, Blackpool, inflicted “terrible injuries” on her seven-weeks-old daughter Edith and squeezed her to death, the jury was told. A post-mortem examination found Edith had sustained 33 fractures, with virtually all of her ribs broken, Preston Crown Court heard.

He said: “It was not a one-off.
