Mother 'drowned daughter, 4, in bath because she was ashamed of her cerebral palsy'
A mother drowned her daughter in the bath because she was embarrassed by the girl's disability and could not cope, a court has heard.
Joanne Hill, 32, had tried to persuade husband Simon to have their four-year-old daughter Naomi, who suffered from cerebral palsy, adopted. But when the devoted father refused, Hill hatched a plan to murder the child instead, it is alleged.
After holding Naomi's head under the water, Hill is said to have calmly dressed her daughter - who wore callipers and was partially deaf - in denim dungarees before placing her in a car seat in the family car.
