Child’s mother pleads guilty to single charge of child cruelty
Craig Rowland, 28, of Millington Park, Portadown, appeared at Belfast Crown Court for an arraignment hearing.
He further denied a charge of the manslaughter of his son on the same date of October 20, 2018. However, Rowland pleaded guilty to a charge of child cruelty on November 20, 2015, in that he “wilfully neglected Lewis Oliver Rowland in a manner likely to cause unnecessary suffering or injury to health”.
Mr Justice O’Hara directed the Probation Service provide a pre-sentence report on Graham. A prosecution lawyer told the court that a trial will be required of Craig Rowland on the the charges he denied. Mr Justice O’Hara told the senior counsel: “Your solicitor needs to send an email to each of those experts. It is not remotely good enough to come in here and say you have contacted eight people and you have not had a reply. It is just not good enough. The case will reviewed again in two weeks time. I want answers.”
