A mother who suffocated her newborn baby and left his body in woodland only to be arrested 25 years later has been given a suspended prison sentence after admitting manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility.
Passing sentence at Liverpool Crown Court, Mrs Justice Eady told Sharkey she was "satisfied that this very sad case calls for compassion".
