Man killed baby stepson while 'full of rage' after row with ex, court hears
A man killed his baby stepson while "full of rage" following an argument with his ex-girlfriend, a court has heard.
Thomas Morgan is accused of inflicting fatal injuries on Jensen-Lee Dougal when he shook him at the family home in Swansea. The 29-year-old denies murder and inflicting serious injuries on the child.
Swansea Crown Court heard the five-month-old suffered catastrophic brain damage, numerous fractures, and extensive retinal bleeding to both of his eyes. Morgan was in a relationship with Jensen-Lee's mother, Jordan Dougal, and was treated as the baby's stepfather, the jury was told.
But he "seriously abused the trust placed in him" when left with the baby on 30 March, 2024, said Caroline Rees KC, prosecuting. She said Morgan had argued with Georgia Griffiths, his former partner, on the day the baby was shaken.
In an angry exchange of messages, he called his ex names like "stinking rat" and "stinking little dog.
