Roxanne Davis (pictured right outside Winchester Crown Court at an earlier hearing last month), 30, has been found guilty of causing the death of her baby son
A mother and her ex-boyfriend have been found guilty over the death of her three-week-old baby.
Roxanne Davis, 30, and Samuel Davies, 24, have been convicted of causing or allowing the death of her baby Stanley after he was left with a horrific catalogue of injuries.
The newborn died in hospital on March 28 last year after suffering a fractured skull and a brain haemorrhage.
Davis, of Gosport, and Davies, of Southampton, both tested positive for cocaine and cannabis after Stanley was taken to hospital.
He died a week after he was admitted to Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth, where he had previously been treated for 32 rib fractures and nine to his arms and legs on three separate occasions.
Davis sobbed and screamed 'murderer' at her ex-partner as the verdicts were announced at Winchester Crown Court today.
After the pair were told they would be remanded in custody until sentencing next month, Davis shouted: 'You have got it wrong, Sam just tell them you done it.'
She added: 'Thanks a lot Sam you murderer.'
James Newton-Price QC, prosecuting, previously told jurors: 'We say Stanley was unlawfully killed by the violent actions of one of these two defendants.
'One of these two defendants inflicted fatal injuries to Stanley's head, causing a skull fracture and a brain haemorrhage from which he could not recover.
'The other defendant was aware or ought to have been aware that there was a risk of serious harm to this child and they failed to take the necessary steps to protect Stanley.'
After Stanley's death a crowdfunding page was set up to raise money for his funeral, which accumulated £2,300 in total.
Stanley Davis (pictured) who died of a skull fracture and brain haemorrhage on March 28 2017 also suffered 32 fractures to his ribs and nine fractures to his arms and legs as a result of three separate incidents
Davis had written on the crowdfunding page that Stanley had been her 'miracle baby' after being told she would not be able to have children when she was younger.
During the court case Mr Newton-Price said: 'In this case, the prosecution cannot say which defendant caused the fatal injury to the head or whether one or both of them caused the bone fractures on the earlier occasions.
'In this case, it's necessary to prove that one of them caused the fatal injury and the other allowed it to happen as they were aware, or ought to have been aware, of the risk and they failed to protect Stanley from this.'
The lawyer said police were called to an argument at the couple's flat on March 11 and added: 'There are other indications the defendants were arguing with each other and they had very little patience.
'Text messages between them show angry exchanges on both sides.'
In one message, Davis wrote: 'I am not a stay-at-home mum,' and in another 'Everyone is going to know what a woman-beater and drug-user you are.'

Mr Newton-Price said there were 'quite common' references to cannabis and cocaine use in the text exchanges and on March 20 Davies had phoned a doctor, saying: 'I have serious mental health problems and I have been using a lot of cocaine to deal with it.'
He added: 'It's within hours of that call that Stanley starts to show symptoms that are consistent with a non-accidental brain injury arising from a skull fracture.'
He said both defendants tested positive for drugs the following day.
Mr Newton-Price said that on March 15, Davies had taken a photo of a newspaper article about a mother who had taken her dead baby on to a bus to avoid detection over the child's death from a head injury.
He said the following day a large bruise was found behind Stanley's right ear and added: 'The prosecution ask rhetorically: what is Sam's interest in that court case?'
The defendants, who share similar surnames but are not married, both denied the charges but were found guilty after a five-week trial.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
