A mother has been found guilty of killing her baby daughter due to heat from a hairdryer.
Courtney Gartshore, 28, denied culpable homicide of her three-month-old daughter Dahlia-Rose who was in her care in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, in September 2023.
The baby’s DNA was found on the hairdryer, but an expert told the High Court in Aberdeen she may already have been dead before she was burned.
The jury took just over an hour to return a guilty verdict on the seventh day of the trial.
