Mrs Justice Cox told Magdelena Luczak and Mariusz Krezolek that the scale of
Daniel’s suffering had been on a “truly horrific scale” yet the couple had not
shown a shred of remorse for their actions.
The prosecution and defence had agreed that the starting point for their
sentence should be life with a minimum of 15-years.
But Mrs Justice Cox doubled that tariff, telling the pair they had breached
the most important position of trust as the parents of a small child who
deserved their love and protection.
Polish nationals, Luczak and Krezolek, simply stared straight ahead and
showed no emotion as their interpreters translated the judge’s damning
sentencing remarks.
Mrs Justice Cox said: “As the trial has progressed, harrowing details of the
unimaginable acts of cruelty and brutality inflicted on little Daniel, over many
months, have exposed both the torment and despair he must have suffered and your
callous disregard for his pain and distress.
