Kieron Platten told police and hospital staff that he heard a clicking noise while changing her nappy at a property in Owston Road, Annesley, during the early hours of 18 August 2017.
Doctors who examined the baby couldn’t find the cause of the injury and after she was transferred to see a specialist, X-rays revealed a significant fracture and the expert did not believe the injury could be explained by a nappy change.
