The parents of Kaylea Titford are Alun Titford and Sarah Lloyd-Jones. Her spinal bifida was present at birth. She was a nice girl, despite the many difficulties she faced.
Kaylea was touted as a possible paralympian and loved to play wheelchair basketball.
Mold Crown Court’s jury learned that the young girl had not seen a doctor in the nine months prior to her passing. In addition, by September 2020, she still hadn’t returned to school.
The prosecution claimed that Kaylea’s parents, Alun Titford, 45, and Sarah Lloyd-Jones, 39, concealed their mistakes from the public as a result of the Covid lockdown.
By the time of her death, Kaylea was also unable to move on her dirty bed, her hair was matted and unclean, and her toenails hadn’t been cut in at least six months. She had significant skin irritation and ulceration.
Prosecutor Caroline Rees KC claims that Kaylea urinated in her own excrement because she was unable to use a toilet or restroom.
The prosecution remarked that it must have been a terrible experience that no animal would ever want to go through.
Father of Kaylea Titford: Too lazy to care for her
It is devastating to find that a parent’s heart could become this cold toward their child.
When questioned about why he had treated her kid so poorly, Mr. Ttford responded, “I am lazy.” He claimed that after work he became exhausted and went to his bedroom to watch TV.
Kaylea’s mother, Sarah Lloyd-Jones, pled guilty to her wrongdoings (manslaughter by gross negligence) last year while Kaylea’s father, Alun Titford, contested the accusations and a distinct charge of causing or enabling a child’s death.
Due to ulceration brought on by her weight and inactivity, Kaylea passed away from infection and inflammation. According to a specialist, it was the worst pressure ulceration instance ever.
The “rotting” smell in her room made the emergency personnel who arrived at the house after she was found on 10 October feel uncomfortable.
In addition, it was thought that the maggots that were found in her room had been eating on her body.
The House’s chaotic and filthy interior was visible in the video from the scene, along with soiled clothes, a pee bottle, a catheter on the floor, and various insect infestations.
On March 1st, a sentence will be handed down at Swansea Crown Court to Kaylea Titford’s parents.

At her Father’s trial, Kaylea’s former learning support assistant testified that Kaylea was “fiercely independent.”
