A carer who strangled her five-year-old daughter at home during lockdown wept as she was jailed for five years today.
Martina Madarova was suffering from depression when she throttled Alijah Thomas at her home in Ealing, London on September 14 last year.
Alijah's father David said he doesn't blame Madarova for their daughter's death and described her as the best mum and his partner, best friend and soulmate.
