A man has been found guilty of manslaughter by gross negligence after his teenage daughter was found dead in conditions that were described as "unfit for any animal".
Kaylea Titford was found dead aged 16 in soiled clothing and bedding at the family home in Newtown, Powys, Wales, in October 2020. Kaylea, who had spina bifida and used a wheelchair, weighed 22st 13lb at the time of her death, a trial at Mold Crown Court heard.
The teen died after suffering inflammation and infection from ulceration, arising from obesity and immobility. Emergency service workers who were called to the scene described feeling sick due to the "rotting" smell in Kaylea's room, where maggots were found that were believed to have been feeding on her body, the jury was told.
