Constance Marten and Mark Gordon jailed for 14 years each over death of their baby | BBC News

Constance Marten and Mark Gordon have both been sentenced to 14 years in prison over the death of their baby.

They were found guilty of gross negligence manslaughter after a long and complex trial which was beset by delays and bizarre outbursts.

Gordon will serve a further four years on extended licence, while Marten will not be released until she has served at least two thirds of her sentence.

Their baby Victoria was found dead in a shopping bag in Brighton, UK, in 2023 after the pair spent two months on the run. Pathologists are still not sure exactly how she died.
