The Great Whelnetham Attempted Child Killer, Adam Andrews, condemned to merely three years last year for forcefully shaking a 21-day-old infant, resulting in blindness and total paralysis, is scheduled for early release.

In February 2024, Adam Andrews, residing on Raynsford Road in Great Whelnetham, near Bury St Edmunds, was found guilty of a lesser offence of severe bodily harm without intent.

The court was informed that the abuse occurred on June 28, 2018, when the victim was merely 21 days old.

Adam Andrews, who has exhibited “absolutely no remorse” after brutally assaulting the infant, has expressed a desire to resume his life upon his release.

Consequently, due to Adam Andrews’s activities, the child experiences a markedly diminished life expectancy.

Adam Andrews will be released early under the government’s early release program, having qualified after receiving a sentence below the four-year prison threshold and not being classified as a ‘dangerous offender’ according to the plan.

A statement from the boy’s mother indicated that her six-year-old son is blind and crippled, will never walk or speak, and necessitates round-the-clock care.

She stated, “His bedroom is not populated with toys but rather with feeding machines and medical apparatus.”

He will be unable to consume food or water and must be nourished via a button connected to his intestine.

She stated that the boy experiences between 30 and 40 seizures daily.

The mother stated, “I must witness my child’s decline due to the actions of this man in a moment of furious rage.” He should not be let to roam the streets while I provide constant care for my child.

Adam Andrews will serve only half of his already mild three-year sentence, and his release is near.
