A baby boy allegedly sexually abused and murdered by a teacher who was adopting him with his boyfriend had a human bite mark on his body six weeks before he died.
Preston Davey was aged nine months when he was placed in the care of Jamie Varley and John McGowan-Fazakerley in April 2023. The couple had successfully applied to adopt the tot, but less than four months later he was dead. Preston Crown Court has been told the infant was 'routinely ill-treated, sexually abused, and physically assaulted' before being smothered. A post-mortem found he'd suffered 40 separate injuries, including severe bruising to the back of his throat.
Today the jury was shown a photograph of the tot standing naked in a paddling pool, in June 2023. Pathologist Dr Alison Armour, who carried out the autopsy on Preston, said a 'purple-brownish' circular bruise, with a 'sparing' or 'un-involvement' of skin at the centre, could clearly be seen on his right buttock.
'It's my view that this most likely represents a human bite mark. ' Varley is accused of sexually abusing and murdering Preston, while McGowan-Fazakerley has pleaded not guilty to five charges. Preston Davey died after suffering abuse and was found to have 40 injuries.
The prosecution alleges that Preston had been sexually assaulted by Varley shortly before the clip was filmed, at 4.45pm on July 27 – just a few hours before the infant was rushed to hospital and pronounced dead
