The parents of an obese and disabled teenager who died weighing 23 stone spent a staggering £1,000 on takeaways and fast foods in the three months before her death. Kaylea Titford, who had a string of health issues and had been in a wheelchair since she was young, was just 16 when she was found dead in bed in 2020.
The vulnerable 16-year-old girl who depended entirely on others for her care was left in "unbearable" living conditions, before she was found unresponsive on October 10, 2020, a court case has heard. Her mother Sarah Lloyd-Jones, 39, admittted manslaughter by gross negligence but her father, 45-year-old Titford, denied the offence and stood trial in February where he was convicted by a jury. The pair were sentenced for their daughter's death on Wednesday, March 1 in Swansea Crown Court.
As the pair were sentenced, the court heard how they spent a staggering £1,000 on takeaways and fast foods in the three months before her death. These included 93 takeaways in the month before her death.
