Dad shook baby so hard he caused terrible brain injuries then blamed the dog
A young father shook his baby so hard he caused terrible brain injuries then lied to doctors and police and blamed the dog, a court has heard. The actions of Dafydd Rutherford caused the weeks-old infant to suffer multiple bleeds on the brain with devastating and life-long consequences. Swansea Crown Court heard the defendant belatedly admitted shaking his baby out of frustration, saying he did not want to hurt his child but to "stop [the baby] crying". Rutherford's advocate said the offence was born of "immaturity, impulsivity, and recklessness" and said the reality was his client - who was 19 at the time - "simply wasn't ready for a child." Megan Williams, prosecuting, told the court the alarm was raised by medics at Morriston Hospital after the injured infant had been brought in from their home in Swansea. Initially the child was noted to have a series of parallel bruises on the chest and to be "pale" in colour but then suffered a seizure. Subsequent head scans showed areas of bleeding on the brain, and the police and social services were alerted.

The prosecutor said both the baby's parents were arrested. The court heard that during the course of a number of police interviews Rutherford denied being responsible for the injuries to his child saying the dog had knocked the baby's basket over. He said he had picked the baby up and when they went to sleep he put the child down and went into the kitchen. The defendant later admitted he had become frustrated at the dog barking and the baby crying and had shaken the infant "three or four times". The prosecutor said the defendant told officers "he didn't wish to hurt [the child] he simply wished to stop [them] crying". For all the latest court stories sign up to our crime newsletter The court heard the victim has been left with developmental delay as a result of injuries to the brain. In an impact statement from the baby's family which was read the court they described how they had been "torn apart" while the defendant remained silent about what he had done. They said in not telling the doctors what had really happened straight away so they could provide appropriate treatment, Rutherford had "chosen to help himself rather than help his [child.]" Dafydd Rutherford, now 22, had previously pleaded guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm when he appeared in the dock for sentencing. He has no previous convictions. Stuart John, for Rutherford, said the defendant understands he has caused "irreparable damage" to his young baby and to the wider family. He said the offence was born from "immaturity, impulsivity, and recklessness" and was something the defendant would regret for the rest of his life. He added that the reality was at the time of the incident his client was a teenager and "was not ready for a child". Judge Catherine Richards told Rutherford his child had been just weeks old when he caused "devastating" injuries in what is typically characterised as "shaken baby syndrome". She said the defendant had then denied being responsible for the injuries until later admitting he had became frustrated at the dog barking and the baby crying and lost his temper. She said the fact Rutherford had initially denied the assault meant not only that doctors did not know what they were dealing with but that suspicion fell on other family members, something which was a significant aggravating factor in the case. With a discount for this guilty plea Rutherford was sentenced to 28 months in prison. He will serve up to half the sentence in custody before being released on licence to serve the remainder in the community.

Gregg Wallace 'sorry' but says he's 'not a groper'
Former MasterChef host Gregg Wallace has said he is "so sorry" to anyone he hurt, but insisted that he is "not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher". In a new interview with The Sun, the TV presenter also defended his sacked co-host John Torode, saying he is "not a racist". Wallace was sacked earlier this month after a report upheld 45 allegations about his behaviour on the programme, including one of unwelcome physical contact and three of being in a state of undress. Torode was also axed after a claim against him using "an extremely offensive racist term" was upheld. He has said he has "no recollection" of the incident. The inquiry, conducted by an independent law firm, was ordered by MasterChef's production company Banijay in the wake of a BBC News investigation last year, which first revealed claims of misconduct against Wallace. Since then, more than 50 people have come forward to BBC News with claims against him. They include allegations he groped one MasterChef worker at a wrap party and pulled his trousers down in front of another. Gregg Wallace sacked as 50 more people make claims Wallace faces backlash over autism defence MasterChef crisis: Wallace and Torode were 'never friends' Wallace 'sorry' after 45 claims against him upheld The majority of substantiated claims against Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour, but also culturally insensitive or racist comments. In his first interview since being sacked, the presenter acknowledged that he had said things that "offended people, that weren't socially acceptable and perhaps they felt too intimidated or nervous to say anything at the time. "I understand that now - and to anyone I have hurt, I am so sorry." He indicated his background was to blame for those comments, as a former greengrocer from Peckham working in an environment that was "jovial and crude". But he added: "I'm not a groper. People think I've been taking my trousers down and exposing myself - I am not a flasher. "People think I'm a sex pest. I am not." Wallace said that one of the upheld claims against him related to a widely reported incident in which he had allegedly walked around MasterChef's set naked with a sock on his penis. Addressing that incident, he said that there were no contestants on set, and just four of his friends from the show outside his dressing room door. "I was getting changed to go to a black tie event, a charity event. I put my bow tie on and my shirt. It's only them outside the door. I put the sock on, opened the door, went, 'Wahey!' and shut the door again. "The people interviewed were either amused or bemused. Nobody was distressed," he claimed. Autism defence Ahead of the report's publication earlier this month, Wallace posted a now-deleted statement on Instagram in which he appeared to link the misconduct allegations he was facing to his recent autism diagnosis. That led to a backlash from charities and groups working with disabled people. One charity told BBC News that autism is "not a free pass for bad behaviour", while other groups warned that such remarks risked stigmatising the autistic community. In his interview on Friday night, Wallace spoke again about his diagnosis, saying: "I know I struggle to read people. I know people find me weird. Autism is a disability, a registered disability." He also repeated a claim that he "never [wears] pants", saying: "It's not sexualised. It's hypersensitivity - that happens with autism." Last week, Wallace's co-host Torode was sacked after an allegation of using a severely offensive racist term was upheld. BBC News has since revealed that the alleged incident took place on the set of MasterChef in 2018. Torode has said any racist language is "wholly unacceptable". Addressing the claim against his co-host, Wallace said: "I've known John for 30 years and he is not a racist. "And as evidence of that, I'll show you the incredible diversity of the people that he has championed, MasterChef winners, over the years. There is no way that man is a racist. No way. And my sympathies go out to John because I don't want anybody to go through what I've been through." But he added that he had unfollowed Torode and his wife Lisa Faulkner on social media, saying: "We never really did get on that well. "We're two very, very different characters." Earlier this week, the BBC announced that a new series of MasterChef, which was recorded before Wallace and Torode were sacked, will still be broadcast as planned, on BBC One and iPlayer. Some of the women who came forward with claims against Wallace have said they did not think the new series should be shown. One former MasterChef worker, who claims he groped her, told BBC News the decision to go ahead showed "a blatant disregard for the people who have come forward". The BBC said it had taken the decision "after careful consideration and consultation with the contestants". It added it has not yet taken a decision on what to do with the completed celebrity series and Christmas special.
