“Nobody loves me”, the terrible cry of a child before being murdered by his parents in the UK

Great commotion has caused in the United Kingdom a video showing the last hours of life of a 6-year-old boy, who was subjected to multiple physical and psychological abuse by his parents.

The case of the murder of the little boy Arthur Labinjo-Hughes came to trial this week where the court of Coventry Crown he will judge his father for murder Thomas Hughes, 29 years old and her stepmother Emma Tustin, of 32.

As the Daily Mail narrates, in June 2020 the boy was murdered after receiving blows to the head “Repeatedly against a hard surface” at the hands of his stepmother in the house the three shared.

In a video that is already circulating on social networks, the terrible conditions in which the minor lived are observed. His parents made him sleep on the living room floor.

According to the documents presented by the authorities of West Midlands, the clip was recorded on June 16 of last year and shows the minor with great physical deterioration and quite disoriented.

In a part of the video, Arthur shouts heartbroken “nobody loves Me” during several opportunities, while trying to get up to go to the other side of the room.

In another excerpt from the clip, the little boy is also heard saying “No one is going to feed me” at least five times in less than a minute.

The British newspaper, which had access to the trial in which the parents are accused, announced that the child had suffered a fatal brain injury after having subjected him to a series of abuses defined by doctors as “Child torture”.

These kinds of abuse included being deprived of food, being forced to stand for 14 hours a day, and consuming salt in amounts that could poison him.

Blake Hughes, the uncle of Arthur, pointed out to the court during one of the sessions last month that his nephew burst into tears after his stepmother hit him repeatedly against the wall while telling him “ugly”.

“He said that his mother did not love him and that she had abandoned him. Then he started cryingAnd he continued to say that no one loved him”, He expressed Blake.

After sustaining head injuries, the boy was taken to the Birmingham Children’s Hospital and was disconnected from the intensive care machine in the early morning of June 17 of last year where he died.

“Arthur became a target of systematic ridicule, abuse and cruelty designed to cause him significant physical and mental suffering for reasons that are unfathomable.”, said the prosecutor Jonas Hankin.
