In court, the neighbors testified that they abused the little girl continuously, calling her a “f*cking brat” and a “silly c*nt” and “satan dressed up in a baby gown” according to a recent report:
A stay-at-home father, accused of murdering his adopted baby daughter, referred to her as ‘Satan dressed up in baby gown,’ a court heard.
Matthew Scully-Hicks, 31, is accused of killing 18-month old Elsie after ‘assaulting and abusing’ her over several months.
The couple first adopted Elsie in September 2015 and the process was finalized nearly eight months later.
But less than two weeks later little Elsie died after suffering traumatic head injuries.
She died at University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff, after the decision was taken to switch off her ventilator when doctors decided she would not survive her traumatic head injuries.
After Elsie’s tragic death, police examined electronic devices owned by Matthew Scully-Hicks – including his iPad.
The court heard on September 22, 2015 – just 12 days after having Elsie – he sent a message to a friend saying: ‘I’m going through hell with Elsie!
‘Mealtimes and bedtime are like my worst nightmare at the moment.
‘She’s been up there screaming for 10 minutes non stop. She’s just stopped but I doubt that’s the last I’ll hear tonight.
That evening he also sent a message to husband Craig calling Elsie ‘a psycho.’
On September 29, 2016, he sent the message to Craig describing Elsie as ‘Satan dressed up in a baby gown.’
Scully Hicks, who has no previous convictions, met his husband – who is about five years older than him – while living in Swindon, Wiltshire, in about 2006.
Scully-Hicks originally came from South Wales and the couple relocated to Cardiff in 2010 or 2011.
They married in Portugal in August 2012 and applied to become adopters later that year.
Prosecutor Paul Lewis QC said: Elsie was found unresponsive by paramedics after Scully-Hicks attacked her at his home in Fairwater, Cardiff, on May 25 last year.
Mr. Lewis said: ‘The injuries that caused her death were inflicted upon her by the defendant shortly before he called emergency services that day.
‘His attack upon her that day was not the first time he had employed violence towards Elsie, nor was it the first time he had caused her serious injury.
‘His actions on the late afternoon of May 25 were the tragic culmination of a course of violent conduct on his part towards a defenseless child – an infant that he should have loved and protected, but whom he instead assaulted, abused, and ultimately murdered.’
He later added: ‘It will be for you to judge whether these messages tell of his frustrations in looking after Elsie.’
The court heard police also spoke to neighbors at the couple’s previous address in Cardiff, where Elsie had spent most of her life.
Neighbors referred to Matthew Scully-Hicks as ‘the one who stayed at home.’
Susan Bevan, who lived in the joining semi detached house to the couple, said things changed when Elsie moved in, the court heard.
Mr. Lewis said: ‘On one occasion she heard a little girl crying and ‘the one who stayed at home’ having a rant and shouting ‘shut up, shut up, shut the f**k up.”
Mrs. Bevan’s adult son, James, also heard Matthew Scully-Hicks shouting ‘shut up you little f***ing brat.’
On other occasions, Mr. Bevan heard Matthew Scully-Hicks shouting ‘shut up you silly little c***.’
Mr. Lewis said a music player was then turned up ‘very loud’ but turned down just minutes later – and the baby was still crying.
The tot – described by Craig as ‘tiny and delicate’ but with a ‘brash and bouncy’ personality – was with her new family for less than two months when her right leg was broken in November 2015.
Prosecutor Mr. Lewis said: ‘Craig Scully-Hicks was at work at the time and Matthew Scully-Hicks was home alone with Elsie.
‘When Craig Scully-Hicks got home from work that evening, the defendant told him that Elsie had fallen in the kitchen of their home that morning.
‘He said that Elsie had been upset following her fall but he had picked her up and consoled her and she had then ‘seemed fine.’
Matthew Scully-Hicks said that Elsie had fallen while playing at an activity table.
But Craig became concerned that little Elsie was not fully weight-bearing on the leg so decided she should see a GP, the court was told.
Mr. Lewis said Elsie was generally ‘well and healthy’ but had been slow in reaching some developmental milestones such as walking.
Scully-Hicks described her physically as being ‘tiny and delicate’ but with a ‘brash and bouncy’ personality, the jury was told.
Following Elsie’s death, an X-ray of her right leg from November 2015 was re-examined.
It was found that Elsie had suffered two fractures – one near the ankle and one just above the knee.
Dr. Sarah Harrison, a consultant pediatric radiologist, believes the injuries are ‘the result of trauma’, Mr. Lewis said.
Dr. Nia John, a consultant pediatrician, said it would be ‘unusual’ to suffer two such fractures in the same fall, the court heard.
A post-mortem examination found Elsie had previous and recent bleeding on both sides of her brain.
Consultant neuro-radiologist Dr. Neil Stoodley said he believed Elsie suffered “abusive head trauma that involved a shaking mechanism.”
Other experts said Elsie’s collapse days before her death could have been due to suffering a severe head injury, and found she had suffered injuries to her skull, left femur and three of her ribs between three to five days before her death.
Mr. Lewis said: “The weight of medical evidence is likely to prove that in addition to the recent bone injuries Elsie had suffered, her catastrophic brain injuries and retinal hemorrhages must have been as a result of trauma she suffered immediately before her collapse and the 999 call.
“Elsie was then of course just 18 months old. She could not have inflicted such dreadful injuries on herself.”
The court heard one expert could not rule out all of Elsie’s brain and spine abnormalities were caused “as a consequence of a single event”.
The jury was told all medical experts agreed her injuries were consistent with non-accidental injury.
Mr. Lewis said Scully-Hicks claims Elsie didn’t suffer an accident on the day of her collapse, and may argue ‘her’ three-year-old sibling may have caused her injuries while he left them unattended.
On December 16 2015, while Mr. Scully-Hicks was at work, Elsie sustained a bruise to the left hand side of her forehead.
A health visitor advised Scully-Hicks to take Elsie for treatment on December 21. He allegedly lied that he had done so.
On January 18 2016, Elsie suffered another bruise to her head.
Mr. Scully-Hicks received a phone call from his husband on March 10, saying that he was in an ambulance with Elsie as she had fallen down the stairs.
He claimed to have been sorting washing in a bedroom, with Elsie on the floor, before going downstairs – closing the gate behind him.
‘He said he had then seen Elsie at the top of the stairs, that the baby gate had then opened and that Elsie had tumbled down the stairs,’ Mr Lewis said.
Mr. Scully-Hicks was working in Leicester at the time but immediately headed to Cardiff, meeting the defendant at the University Hospital of Wales.
Elsie’s injuries were considered to be ‘consistent with a fall downstairs’ and she was discharged home after four hours in hospital, Mr Lewis said.
Then, on May 25 last year, Scully-Hicks phoned an ambulance telling an operator Elsie had become ‘floppy and limp’ while he changed her for bed.
Mr. Lewis said: ‘Craig was again at work in Leicester, and the defendant was alone with Elsie and her sibling. ‘In the call Scully-Hicks told an emergency operator “I was just changing my daughter for bed and she went all floppy and limp, and now she’s not doing anything. She is lying on the floor”. ‘You will observe at no stage during the call did he suggest Elsie had suffered an accident, nor any trauma that might have caused her injury.’
Mr. Lewis said police and paramedics arrived at the family home around 6.26 pm and found an ‘upset’ Scully-Hicks, as well as Elsie having a cardiac arrest on the floor of a downstairs room. Scully-Hicks allegedly told paramedics his daughter ‘screamed out as in pain, then collapsed’. But, Mr. Lewis said, ‘This was not something he was ever to tell his partner, hospital staff, or the police.’
Elsie’s heart rhythm was restored at the hospital, where scans showed bleeding on both sides of her brain – recent and older. Her condition deteriorated a day after she was admitted to the hospital, and two days later a decision was taken to switch off her ventilator as she was unresponsive and unable to breath herself.

Well,THERE IS SOMEONE WHO DOES KNOW and you can bet that this innocent little one WILL be VINDICATED and her murderer(s) WILL be held accountable.
Mt 10:42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
Mt 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mt 18:10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Mt 18:14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.
Mt 9:42 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
