A teenager accused of murdering a four-month-old baby by shaking him after losing his temper called the infant a ‘c***t’ in a Snapchat message days earlier, a court has heard.
Elijah Shemwell suffered limb and rib fractures before he died in January 2022, allegedly at the hands of his mum’s ex Carl Alesbrook.
The 19-year-old denies murder and two additional counts of GBH relating to attacks on Elijah.
