The sentencing follows an extensive investigation into the death of Dallas Kelly, who passed away on October 19, 2021, four days after paramedics responded to an emergency call made by Reece Kelly reporting that his son was unresponsive. The police investigation revealed that Reece Kelly had caused Dallas’ injuries by shaking him with significant force. A medical expert compared Dallas’ injuries to those typically caused by a fall from a multi-storey building or a fatal road traffic collision.
