Kate Roughley is sentenced to 14 years for the manslaughter of nine-month-old Genevieve Meehan.
Kate Roughley was described as showing "no remorse" for causing the death of nine-month-old Genevieve Meehan
Genevieve was left on the beanbag for 90 minutes and was seen struggling and coughing on CCTV footage.Jurors heard Genevieve, the daughter of barrister John Meehan and solicitor Katie Wheeler, died from asphyxiation caused by the stresses placed on her body by a "very unsafe sleeping environment".She said: "As the harrowing CCTV audio and video footage showed, that day you left Genevieve in that position only carrying the most cursory and infrequent of checks.
She claimed the staff-to-child ratio at Tiny Toes had "gradually worsened" and her barrister Sarah Elliott KC remined the jury that senior managers had a live CCTV feed of the baby room where Genevieve was fighting for her life.
