Dylan Scanlon, five, was unconscious on New Year's Eve in 2021 after emergency services were called to his home.

She was arrested and later hospitalised under the Mental Health Act. During this time she admitted to staff members at Edenfield Hospital: "I killed my son." Dylan was born in October 2016. Scanlon and Mr Keenan's relationship broke down in 2020 and Mr Keenan moved out. On December 20 2021, she picked up a repeat prescription. In the run-up to Christmas, she became more isolated, and the week before, she sent a number of voicemails to Mr Keenan saying she was struggling to cope looking after Dylan on her own.One of the messages read: "I promise you now, carry on treating me like a k**bhead, I promise you're never gonna see my son again."
