A mum whose 16-month-old daughter was murdered has had her jail sentenced increased to 12 years today after a hearing at the Court of Appeal by the Attorney General.
Frankie Smith, was originally handed eight years behind bars for causing or allowing the death of her daughter Star Hobson when her former girlfriend Savannah Brockhill was found guilty of the youngster’s murder.
Suella Braverman, the Attorney General for England and Wales said the case was “tragic and extremely upsetting” and she believes Smith’s sentence was “unduly lenient”.
