'Arrogant' man who crushed Alfie Lamb to death with car seat is freed early from prison

The "manipulative" son of an ex-Tory minister locked up for more than seven years in 2019 for crushing his girlfriend's toddler to death has been released early from jail.

Stephen Waterson, 30, was heading home after shopping in South London when he pushed back his electronic car seat onto three-year-old Alfie Lamb who was sitting in the footwell behind at his mother's feet.

The little boy began crying and choking, at which point his mum Adrian Hoare told him to "shut up" before Waterson moved the seat forward again.
