A man who killed his partner’s two-year-old daughter and left her body in a locked toilet has been imprisoned for at least 26 years.
As part of a life sentence, 24-year-old Scott Jeff will serve a minimum period for the murder of Isabella Jonas-Wheildon, who was discovered in Ipswich on June 30, 2023, suffering from “traumatic injuries.”
Chelsea Gleason-Mitchell, her 24-year-old mother, was sentenced to 10 years in jail for her role in causing or permitting a child’s death.
Ipswich Crown Court heard how the Bedfordshire couple fled Ipswich after wheeling Isabella’s lifeless body around in a pushchair for days following her death on June 26.
