The grieving father of murdered 16-month-old Star Hobson has issued a statement and said he will never recover from the horrific way in which his beloved daughter was taken from him.

Savannah Brockhill, 28, was sentenced to life in prison for killing Star and the girl’s mother, Frankie Smith, 20, was also jailed for eight years for letting the murder happen.

A judge heard that Mr. Hobson broke up with Smith before she began a toxic relationship with Brockhill.

“The horrific death of my beautiful baby daughter has left me devastated and I will never recover from the callous and cruel way in which Star was taken from me,” Mr. Hobson expressed.

“No sentence that a court can impose will ever bring back my precious daughter.

“I would now request privacy so that I can start to grieve and begin to try and pick up the pieces of my life.”

Sentencing Smith and Brockhill, the judge said the “fatal punch or kick” to the toddler damaged her internal organs and caused her to lose half the blood in her body.

She also said that the 16-month-old was found to have numerous ribs fractures, two brain injuries, a skull fracture, and fracture and refracture of her leg.

Speaking in court, Mr. Hobson’s father, Bernard, told the judge Mrs. Justice Lambert said that his son is “heartbroken and haunted by his baby daughter suffering in her little life and her tragic death which didn’t need to happen.”

“What did Star do to deserve that her life, which had just begun, be snuffed out so prematurely?” he continued.

“It’s hard to comprehend that a girl that we knew could do something so heinous.

“Star was snatched away, her life had barely started.”
