A couple who subjected two young boys to appalling abuse have each been locked up for two years.
Ricky Winter and Kristina Davies were both locked up for two years
Kristina Davies, 19, and Ricky Winter, 23, inflicted terrible injuries on the youngsters, both aged under four, including fractured bones, bruises and bites to their private parts.
Winter will pass his sentence in an adult prison while Davies will spend two years in a youth institute.
One expert witness, a paediatrician, said the case was the worst he encountered
in 30 years.
Davies and Winter, both of Canterbury Road, Margate, would force the boys to stand in a corner with their hands on their heads for long periods of time and screamed in their faces on numerous occasions.
The couple had pleaded not guilty to eight counts of child neglect but earlier this month were convicted of the charges by a jury at Canterbury Crown Court.
