A man identified in reports as Emmerson-Oak Thomas’s father is found guilty of murdering his 14-week-old baby son after a court hears that the child suffered severe injuries consistent with violent shaking. The accounts say the baby, who was 14 weeks old at the time, sustained bleeding in the brain. One report describes evidence presented at trial suggesting the injuries matched shaking severe enough to cause the head trauma, rather than other accidental explanations. Both outlets refer to the father’s actions as involving violent shaking and report that the guilty verdict is for murder.
The reporting also notes that the case focuses on the cause of the injuries and the interpretation of medical evidence, including how the injuries relate to mechanisms such as shaking. The verdict reflects the jury’s conclusion that the prosecution has proved murder rather than a lesser offense. Additional procedural details, sentencing, and the full evidence are not included in the provided summaries.
