A “withdrawn” and painfully thin” toddler was subjected to “distress, pain and misery” in the weeks before he was murdered by his grandparents, a court has heard.
Kerry Ives, 46, and her husband Michael, 47, are accused of the murder of their two-year-old grandson Ethan Ives-Griffiths, who died in hospital on August 16 2021 after an ambulance was called to their home in Deeside, Flintshire, two days earlier.
