Child sexual offences *

Sentence

18 years imprisonment and 6 years extended licence

Ruth Auta

Cruelty to a child *

Sentence

3 years' imprisonment

On 20 December 2022, Ruth Auta, a 28-year-old nurse, left her ten-week-old son Joshua Akerele home alone in her nurses' accommodation at Royal Bolton Hospital while she went to work her shift starting shortly after 6.30am. She returned over eight hours later at 3.13pm. At 3.24pm, she called an ambulance reporting that her son was not breathing. Despite resuscitation attempts, Joshua was pronounced dead at 4.40pm. Experts could not confirm the cause of death; he was healthy but may have overheated due to layers of clothing and bedding, though other causes could not be ruled out. Auta initially lied to police, claiming she had collected Joshua from a childminder after work, fed him, placed him on her bed, and fell asleep next to him, waking to find him unresponsive. CCTV showed her leaving alone at 6.47am and returning alone. Messages on her phone asked the childminder to lie about caring for Joshua that day, but the childminder confirmed she had not seen him for days. Auta gave no comment in her police interview and was released on bail. She was arrested on 6 June 2024 at Gatwick Airport attempting to board a one-way flight to Nigeria.

Pleaded guilty to cruelty to a child. No remorse shown; attempted to flee the country.
