Brockhill, 28, gets life sentence for murdering 16-month-old girl, whose mother, Frankie Smith, is sentenced to eight years
The woman who murdered 16-month-old Star Hobson after inflicting “utterly catastrophic” injuries has been jailed for life, with a minimum term of 25 years.
Star suffered weeks of “neglect, cruelty and injury” by Savannah Brockhill, 28, at a flat in Keighley, West Yorkshire. The toddler died of cardiac arrest after being punched or kicked by Brockhill in September 2020. A post-mortem revealed previous brain injuries, fractured bones, including Star’s ribs, tibia and skull and injury to internal organs.
