Tony Hudgell was brutally beaten in Kings Hill, Kent when he was a baby. The attackers were his parents, Jody Simpson and Anthony Smith. They were convicted of child abuse four years ago.

The pair was sentenced to 10 years at Maidstone Crown Court in February 2018. They have only completed half of their jail time but will get out of prison in the upcoming weeks.

Because of his cruel parents, Tony suffered broken fingers and toes and ligament injuries. They also made him suffer for ten days before taking him to a health care facility,

When doctors first saw him, he was on the brink of death. Both of his legs were required to be amputated. Tony was later adopted by Paila Hudgell, 54, who has invested a lot of time in campaigning for stricter punishment for child abusers.
