TikToker murders her three-year old daughter

Note: This article is in Memory of Kaylee-Jade Priest (2017?-2020) TikToker Nikkip210 along with her boyfriend Callum Redfern were found guilty of the brutal murder of her three year old daughter Kaylee-Jade Priest on 9 August 2020 and both have been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

The murder
Nicola Priest, aged 23 from Solihull, England, United Kingdom would frequently upload dance videos on TikTok. However, she didn't have a high number of followers however. Priest would sometimes upload dance videos with her daughter Kaylee-Jade. From the surface, it may look like a sweet bonding between a mother and daughter but when the cameras are turned off, a dark reality was revealed.

Kaylee-Jade was living a terrible life. Her mother Nicola and Nicola's boyfriend Callum would frequently abuse her and neglect her as if she didn't matter. On the evening of 9 August 2020 at around 7 PM, Nicola put her daughter Kaylee-Jade to sleep while she and Callum would get intimate in bed. But Kaylee-Jade didn't want to sleep and instead stayed awake while crying. This enraged the couple and instead of comforting her and calmly getting her to sleep, they started beating up the poor girl. Kaylee-Jade kept throwing up the whole night and was fatally injured and in the morning, she passed away. A few hours before the murder, the last moments of Kaylee-Jade and Nicola entering the apartment were shown on CCTV camera. The toddler kept her distance from her mother throughout the entire journey which shows how terrified she was of Nicola.

Aftermath
During the morning, Nicola called the police to investigate the case and she didn't tell the truth. The cops found Nicola's behaviour to be suspicious and they took her as a suspect. When she was released from interrogation, she posted TikToks right after. A month later, she posted a TikTok "paying tribute" to her daughter with a caption of "RIP my baby" and she put a bunch of emojis on it. In it, she was shedding crocodile tears and lip syncing to a sad song. She kept doing this for some time. People however refused to sympathize with her and called her a monster because they knew she was guilty. This is where it gets more disturbing. Exactly a day after that fake tribute, she started uploading regular dance videos and was seen as extremely happy as if nothing happened nor did Kaylee-Jade exist. Two months after the murder, the police gathered enough evidence to find that Nicola was indeed guilty of the manslaughter of poor Kaylee-Jade. Forensic experts reveal that Kaylee-Jade had been receiving the same beating since a very long time. The mother legit hated her daughter so much that she even expressed it to her boyfriend who also supported her. Kaylee-Jade was already injured brutally before the murder and was screaming constantly which the neighbors have heard numerous times.

Verdict
In the end, during the trial both Nicola and Callum passed the blame game on each other however the court found both of them guilty of the manslaughter of the toddler. Nicola and Callum both were given 14-15 years for the manslaughter of Kaylee-Jade. However unlike Callum, Nicola was given 3 years for child cruelty and Callum was not.
