In a victim impact statement, the baby’s mother, who also cannot be named for legal reasons, said: “You’re nothing but a spiteful, disgusting person.<\/p>\n
“The impact on my child will last for the rest of my life.<\/p>\n
“I’ll never understand what you were thinking. It doesn’t matter how long you’ll get because it will never be enough.”<\/p>\n
Despite making an application to vacate his plea last year, permission was refused by Judge Paul Thomas KC.<\/p>\n
He called Jamieson, who did not attend court for sentencing, “a coward” who was “consumed by self-pity”.<\/p>\n
“You threw the baby with great force at the television. It was a fit of uncontrolled temper.<\/p>\n
“You did not even bother to check whether the baby was alive. It was an act of the most horrendous callousness and self-interest.<\/p>\n
“The child has irreversible brain damage. You have no remorse, no regret, for what you did.”<\/p>\n
Carl Harris, of children’s charity NSPCC Cymru, said it was a “truly shocking case of cruelty and violence inflicted on a baby by her father” who was “the very person who should have been protecting her from harm”. <\/p>\n
“Because of Jamieson’s brutal attack, his daughter will require care and support for the rest of her life,” he said.<\/p>\n
Jamieson will have to serve two-thirds of his sentence before being eligible to be released.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In a victim impact statement, the baby’s mother, who also cannot be named for legal reasons, said: “You’re…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":366829,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":["post-366828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/366828","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=366828"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/366828\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/366829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=366828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=366828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=366828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
