Homosexual man imprisoned for life without parole after abusing, killing adopted boy

A homosexual who sexually and physically abused and murdered the baby boy he adopted with his partner was jailed for life without parole on Thursday.

English high school teacher Jamie Varley, 37, was convicted on Monday of murder, two counts of assault by penetration, five counts of cruelty to a child, sexual assault of a child, and multiple accounts of related to child abuse material. John McGown-Fazakerley, his homosexual partner, was found guilty of two counts of child cruelty, the sexual assault of a child, and causing or allowing the death of a child.

Varley told police that Preston Davey, who was 13 months old when he was killed, had accidentally drowned in a bathtub. However, a medical examiner found signs that the boy had suffered at least 40 injuries.

When the verdict was announced, Varley fell to his knees and began vomiting. Karen Tonge of the Crown Prosecution Service called the case one of the “most shocking and horrific cases I have dealt with in my career.”

Preston was nine months old when he was adopted by the homosexual couple in Blackpool and died only four months later.

Justice Turner said Preston had undergone “unremitting abuse” and neglect before being killed by Varley during a sexual assault.

“It was you who did this. You murdered him,” he told Varley during sentencing, the BBC reported.

“A whole life order is a sentence of last resort for cases of the most extreme gravity. This is a case of the most extreme gravity. You must stay in prison for the rest of your life. You will never be eligible for parole.”

McGowan-Fazakerley, 32, was found guilty of sexual assault, child cruelty and allowing the death of a child, and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

A victim impact statement read out on behalf of Preston’s biological mother, Sarah Davey, said she suffers from the “unimaginable pain of wondering” what her son went through in the final months of his life.

“Those thoughts do not leave me,” she said. “They are with me when I wake up, and they haunt me when I try to sleep. The reality of how he suffered is something I will carry for the rest of my life.”

A statement read on behalf of Gary Nolan, Preston’s biological father, said, “Preston was the son that I never got to meet and now never will.”

“Upon hearing the news, I remember officers taking hold of me and me blanking out, the next thing I recall is waking up in hospital two days later. I am told that I was hysterical and crying and that it was for my own safety that I was taken to the hospital, clearly, I must have been in a bad place mentally.”

In the months leading up to his death, Preston was brought to the hospital with signs of abuse including bruises, but these were dismissed by medical staff.

Debbie Davey, Preston’s heartbroken grandmother, told the Telegraph that the abuse of her grandson should have been identified earlier, especially when he was brought to the hospital with a broken arm – and questioned whether fears of being accused of “homophobia” made social workers reluctant to speak out.

Psychologist Jo Hemmings was blunt in her TV appearance. “Some of the errors may have happened because it is a gay male couple. People feel they have to tread more carefully with a gay couple,” she said.

He'll likely suffer two hells: one here on earth for the rest of his life when the other prisoners find out what he's in for, and another hell for eternity when he meets his maker.

I’m shocked the pro-homosexual mainstream media even reported on this. Weren’t they the ones telling us over and over again how “normal” homosexual parents are and that child agencies need not worry about abuse from those parents.

Sometimes, death itself can be merciful. May these two have a long and very unpleasant stay in prison.

Many of us were discussing on another thread what should be done with such a low creature and 17th Miss Rgt suggested "scaphism".

New to me so I looked it up and found it appears to be appropriate:

"The Dark Truth About Scaphism - A Death Worse Than You Can Imagine"

Sweet dreams!

I assure on this one front - God has that part handled.

We can only pray the administration uses situationsime this to fix the broken wome adoption policies.

Child murderers rarely last long in prison and ‘exacerbating’ details like this usually shorten that even more.

And perverts will be offended and make hate accusations because this story was reported during Pride Month… If what’s going on now in this world doesn’t yet bring on God’s wrath, you have to wonder how bad it was in Sodom and Gomorrah.
