Rob W 0 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Murder accused at son's funeral Alexander Gallon Four-month-old Alexander Gallon died in a fire A young mother has attended the funeral on Tyneside of the four-month-old baby son she is accused of murdering. Alexander Gallon died in a fire in Link Road, Cowgate, on 28 August. Danielle Wails, 21, who was flanked by two prison officers, wiped away tears as she attended the service at West Road Cemetery on Monday. She is remanded in custody and has yet to enter a plea to the murder charge. Alexander died of a combination of carbon monoxide poisoning and burns. Around 50 mourners attended the funeral service, including the baby's father Robert Gallon, and grandparents Carol and David Wails and Michael and Ethel Gallon. Superintendent Barbara Franklin, who led the investigation into Alexander's death, also attended with colleagues. A provisional date of 20 February 2006 has been set for Ms Wails' trial.

peasepud 59 Posted September 19, 2005 Author Share Posted September 19, 2005 Heres what I've learned today and have to point out that this is the view of a person involved in the case and is not a guarantee of guilt or whatever. Basically, the family are well known to the police and theres been a lot of bother between the parents neither of which is (to coin a phrase) the brightest bulb in the box. Basically the coppers first on the scene found the mother and child as already described however what hasnt been made known is that she had her hands tied at the wrists in front of her. When asked how she dialed the emergency services she said, with her tongue, the phone she used was a mobile. Now Im not sure if you've ever tried this but have a go at hitting any key on your moby with your tongue, its damn hard if not impossible. Yet her hands were tied in front of her therefore it would be fairly easy to hold a mobile steady and press the keys. Its being seen as a cry for help, basically she wanted some attention following yet another argument with the childs father so she concoted this story which unfortunately went horribly wrong.

Either way, she didnt mean to hurt the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess what? It didn't sound like your average breaking and entering to me either, on the basis it involved a baby being killed. Of course you omit the fact that your speculation about it being an everyday house fire with tragic consequences appear to be wrong especially given the fact you advised people not to jump the gun on this one.
