My father murdered my baby and he’s not in jail

My father murdered my baby and he’s not in jail

In October 2019, Natalie Sands, her children and her mother suffered an unthinkably brutal attack at the hands of her father.

Natalie was doused in petrol and set alight by her father. Despite being able to escape her burning house with burns to 75 percent of her body, she watched helplessly as her five year old son, Orlando, and mother Antoinette, perished.

After leaving the scene, her father drove to the local Tamworth police station and handed himself in.

It was decided in 2021 that Natalie's father wouldn’t face trial over the crime due to the Judge accepting that he was likely suffering a neurodegenerative disease resulting is psychotic symptoms.

Natalie has been campaigning online to get a lawyer to reopen the case and hold her father “properly accountable”.
