Victim, little Elsie
by VIRGINIA HALE10 Oct 20172,584
A court has heard how just two weeks after formally adopting her with his husband, a gay fitness instructor brutally murdered his 18-month-old daughter he called “Satan in a babygrow”.
Matthew Scully-Hicks, who had given up work to stay at home with the two children of he and his company director husband, is accused of inflicting fatal injuries on baby Elsie after weeks of abuse.
The toddler, who was taken away within days of birth from her drug user mother, died in Cardiff’s University Hospital Wales with “catastrophic head injuries”, days after the defendant called emergency services to report that Elsie was “floppy and weak”.
The jury heard how messages sent by Scully-Hicks, who is accused of breaking his adoptive daughter’s ribs, leg, and ankle, and fracturing her skull, suggested he was “struggling to cope” with looking after the toddler and her adoptive sibling.
The defendant wrote that Elsie was having a “proper diva strop, which is annoying” just 11 days after Elsie was placed with him and his husband in September 2015, in a message echoed the following day, when he accused the baby of having had “another diva strop at teatime”.
Alleging that he was “going through hell with Elsie”, the 31-year-old also wrote: “Mealtimes and bedtimes are like my worst nightmare at the minute …She’s been up there screaming for 10 minutes non stop she’s just stopped but I doubt that’s the last I’ll hear tonight.”
advertiCardiff Crown Court heard how Scully-Hicks, who has no previous convictions, and husband Craig applied to adopt after their marriage in Portugal.
According to the Daily Mail, neighbours heard Scully-Hicks shouting ‘shut up you little f***ing brat”, on an occasion that the child was heard crying.
James Bevan, whose mother Susan lived in the joining semi-detached house to the couple, told the court that neighbours would hear loud music play alongside cries of, “Shut up you silly little c***”, shouted by the defendant.
Prosecutor Paul Lewis QC said: “Within two weeks of Elsie’s formal adoption by the couple, we allege that the defendant had inflicted fatal injuries upon her.
“We allege that his actions were the tragic culmination of a course of violent conduct on his part towards a defenceless child – an infant that he should have loved and protected – but whom he instead assaulted, abused and ultimately murdered.”
But CNN told me that gay people are JUST LIKE YOU AND ME, and that all of those people who say Homosexuality is a mental illness are just a bunch of ignorant "homophobes" who need to get with the times.
