A former teacher who sexually abused and murdered the 13-month-old boy he had adopted with his partner has been sentenced to spend the rest of his life behind bars. Jamie Varley, 37, from Blackpool, was convicted over the death of Preston Davey, who died in July 2023 after enduring months of physical, sexual and emotional abuse. The court heard that the abuse occurred during the final four months of the child's life after he was placed in the couple's care.
