Cole, who was seen on CCTV taking Logan’s body from the flat to the river while being pursued by the juvenile, acknowledged the allegation.

Logan’s stutter is claimed to have become worse, becoming especially awful around Cole. He began to wet himself more regularly and to self-harm.

Cole, a former National Front member who dubbed the five-year-old ‘Coco Pop,’ had forced him to eat Weetabix while the rest of the family ate KFC, according to the court.

Cole would also subject Logan to army-style punishments, such as making him perform press-ups until he burst into tears and collapsed on the floor.

After testing positive for coronavirus on July 20, the five-year-old kid was also ‘kept as a prisoner in his little bedroom. His mother compared it to a ‘dungeon,’ with a baby gate blocking him from escaping.

Logan, a previously smiling, joyful little kid, was discovered in the River Ogmore in Pandy Park, Bridgend, South Wales, on July 31, 2021.
