NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
An ‘evil’ couple who murdered a 15-year-old boy after subjecting him to an ‘utterly horrific and prolonged campaign of extreme physical and mental abuse’ have been jailed for nearly 80 years.
Sebastian Kalinowski died of an infection caused by ‘untreated complications of multiple rib fractures’, after weeks of what prosecutors described as ‘cruel assaults and abuse’ at the hands of his mother Agnieszka Kalinowska, 35, and her long-term partner Andrzej Latoszewski, 38.
The schoolboy, who had been in the UK for less than a year after moving from Poland to live with his mother, was forced to endure depraved ‘punishments’ for ‘petty, childish misdemeanours’ like dropping his food on the floor or going to the toilet during the night.
They included being beaten with a bed slat, whipped with an extension cable, stabbed with a needle, and berated with ‘the most derogatory and inhuman’ verbal abuse.
