Baby Brendon was just two weeks old when he was ‘brutally murdered’ by his father.

Detective Chief Inspector Nadine Partridge, of Avon and Somerset Police, said "The extent of the injuries were like nothing I’ve seen before. Brendon’s little tiny precious body at just two weeks old, there wasn’t any part of him that wasn’t harmed."

Brendon was deemed to be at risk of neglect, not physical harm," said Det Ch Insp Partridge.

A child safeguarding and practice review will be held to examine whether there were any missed opportunities to save Brendon and to identify lessons that can be learned.
