Nathaniel Pope convicted over killing of Kemarni Watson Darby, with mother guilty of causing or allowing his death
A man has been found guilty of murdering his partner’s three-year-old son, who died in 2018 from severe abdominal injuries after weeks of “horrendous” cruelty.
Nathaniel Pope, 32, was found unanimously guilty at Birmingham crown court on Tuesday, while Kemarni Watson Darby’s mother, 30-year-old Alicia Watson, was cleared of murdering her son but found guilty of causing or allowing the child’s death.
