The coward who shook a child and left her with brain injuries - and the family picking up the pieces
The family of a young girl left with life-threatening brain injuries after being deliberately shaken have blasted court delays as the man responsible was finally brought to justice.
Standing in the witness box, a family member of the girl, who has physically recovered, blasted delays in the judicial system. The family member said they could not be sure if there is long-lasting cognitive damage and thanked medical staff for the ‘excellent’ care the child received. “As she grows older, this event needs to be explained to her carefully. Unless he takes responsibility and explains what happened that day, this will never be a positive experience for her.
Emergency services were alerted, with the operator being told the girl was 'floppy'. Paramedics arrived, before the child was rushed to hospital. On the way, she suffered three seizures and had to be resuscitated. Hunt pleaded guilty to section 20 wounding; and causing grievous bodily harm without intent. He denied deliberately shaking the child.
