Seven Years for Manslaughter of Daughter
In Melbourne the Acting Chief Judge, Sir Charles Lowe, sentenced Kevin James Miller to seven years for the manslaughter of his one year old daughter Hazel. The judge noted callousness and considered the maximum 15 years but found the skull fracture resulted from the child hitting a bed corner while falling after a blow. Miller had earlier faced a murder verdict and a retrial was ordered, leading to manslaughter. In Sydney, the C I B chief said no evidence supported a wife’s claim that her husband murdered a girl in Camperdown cemetery in 1946, during a divorce court hearing where she also accused constructive desertion against Cecil Clyde Maitland.
