Gigi's father's statement
John Meehan said:
"I have a beautiful daughter,
her name is Genevieve.
She won't get to experience those moments that make life so wonderful.
Your callous disregard for her life.
I will never comfort her when she is nervous on the first day of school.
I won't be able to pick her up and hold her when she has fallen.
I will not hear her first words.
Your actions have shattered my heart and soul.
I have a beautiful daughter,
her name is Genevieve.
She did not know,
either could we,
every interaction for you with her was in inconvenience to you.
You put your personal convenience above her."
'You are a child killer'
Mr Meehan added:
"Because of your actions
her little body suffered gross indecency of invasive CPR and post mortem.
You have shown no remorse at all for her life.
You could have taken responsibility.
You are cold and callous and cruel.
I have a beautiful daughter
and her name is Genevieve.
I could not have known, someone paid and trusted to provide her care,
that she was not to receive that care.
She loved to laugh,
spend time with her sister,
she loved to play with a tambourine,
and to play with her dog.
To you,
you have no legacy.
You are a child killer.
She has a legacy.
I am so proud of her,
and for as long as I am living
I will always say
I have a beautiful daughter
and her name is Genevieve."
The infant died following in the incident in May 2022 at Tiny Toes Nursery in Cheadle Hulme
