Police have this morning confirmed they will not be adding a third murder charge following the death of Kate Leadbetter and Matty Field’s unborn child Miles.
Six days before expectant parents Sarah and Peter Milosevic were due to welcome their unborn daughter Sophie into the world a drugged up and drunk driver ploughed into their family car. Instead of bringing baby Sophie home to her already prepared nursery, Sarah lay in a hospital bed with a broken back clutching her dead daughter in her arms while Peter watched on with a broken neck. Sophie s death on that fateful day on August 29, 2014 was not recognised as murder or manslaughter or in any charge that ended in occasioning death ; instead she was listed as one of the many massive injuries Sarah suffered.
