Pictures taken outside court show the face of dad Adam White who has admitted cruelty to his 18-day-old son who passed away in his care. More details providing a fuller backdrop to the tragedy will be told in court on Monday, May 23, when White and his former partner, Terri Walters, will be sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court in the afternoon.
Walters arrived early for what had provisionally been earmarked to be her sentencing hearing on Friday, May 20, wearing a cropped top and jeans. She was later followed by White - wearing a face mask, suit and tie - and they entered the Canal Street court building together.
Both defendants confirmed their names as they were read out to them in the dock and they sat on the same row with a few seats between them. Walters became emotional and bowed her head as Judge Gregory Dickinson QC, the Recorder of Nottingham, said the case had to be adjourned, one of many adjournments in the case in recent weeks.
