Baby P lodger wins appeal against sentence

ONE of the three people jailed over the death of Baby P won an appeal against his indefinite sentence yesterday.

Jason Owen, 37, was originally given an indeterminate sentence for public protection — with a minimum term of three years — at the Old Bailey in May.

But three judges in the Court of Appeal in London allowed his appeal against the indefinite term of imprisonment, and replaced it with a sentence of six years imprisonment.
