Woman admits manslaughter of seven-year-old Louis Linse

A woman has pleaded guilty to killing a seven-year-old boy in Pembrokeshire.

At Swansea Crown Court, Papaipit Linse, 43, denied the murder of Louis Linse but admitted manslaughter.

The prosecution said they would not seek a murder trial and accepted the guilty plea to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.

Dyfed-Powys Police were called to an address in Upper Market Street, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, just before 10.45am on Wednesday 10 January.

Louis was confirmed to have died a short while later, the force said in a statement at the time.

At the short hearing on Friday morning, Linse was represented by John Hipkin KC, while Caroline Rees KC represented the prosecution.

Judge Paul Thomas set the date for sentence as 13 December.
