mum and step-dad have been jailed for life for brutally murdering the five-year-old – despite going to sickening lengths to try and get away with it.Logan was found dead on July 31 last year in the River Ogmore near his home in Bridgend, south Wales with horrific injuries typically found in car crash victims.The child, who suffered 56 external cuts and bruises, and “catastrophic” internal injuries, was discovered by police partially submerged, wearing dinosaur pyjama bottoms and a Spider-Man top.

The prosecutor added that the two adults treated "him like fly-tipped rubbish" when they dumped him in the river.In April the pair were found guilty of his murder, as was the 14-year-old boy who was also sentenced.
