Haverfordwest: Mum who killed son given indefinite hospital order

Judge Paul Thomas KC sentenced Linse to a hospital order in a mental health unit, not to be released unless decided by a mental health tribunal.

“Your son Louis was not killed by you because you are a wicked person, he died because at the time you were suffering from a mental illness,” he said, addressing Linse.

“Had you not been so ill at that time it never would have happened and you would continue being a good, caring, loving mother to him.”

“What happened to [Louis] was an unspeakable tragedy and I’m quite aware that his loss is quite unbearable for many people. I truly hope, however, that the reasoning behind the order will be understood by them,” he added.

Linse previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility but denied murder, which was accepted by the prosecution.
