A man who shook his partner’s toddler to death and then told police he had choked on a biscuit has been jailed for life with a minimum of 25 years for his murder.
Christopher Stockton, 38, was in sole charge of 22-month-old Charlie Roberts when he suffered head injuries similar to those seen in a car crash, a crushing incident or falling from several stories in the Darlington family home in January last year.
