Mum who let son starve to death walks free after two years in time for Christmas

The mum of a teenager she let waste away and die has been freed from prison in time for Christmas. When Jordan Burling lost his life he weighed less than six stone.

The 18-year-old was found by paramedics lying lifelessly on the makeshift bed, wearing a soiled nappy, at his home in Farnley, Leeds in June 2016.

He died later that day. In July 2018 his mother Dawn Cranston, 45, was sentenced to four years in prison, with his grandmother Denise Cranston, 70, to serve three after both were convicted of manslaughter.

Dawn Cranston will now spend Christmas as a free woman after being released less than two years into her sentence. “It’s sickening that after what she was found guilty of she is now back walking the streets," a source told The Sun.
