A mother who killed her two daughters because they "got in the way of her sex life" has been jailed for life.
Louise Porton denied killing three-year-old Lexi Draper and 17-month-old Scarlett Vaughan, who died 18 days apart last year.
But the 23-year-old, of Skiddaw, Rugby, wasfound guilty of their murder and on Friday she was jailed for a minimum of 32 years.
During her trial, jurors heard Porton did not seem distressed by the deaths.
Passing sentence at Birmingham Crown Court, Mrs Justice Yip described the murders as "evil" and "calculated".
"These were blameless young children who were plainly vulnerable and ought to have been able to rely on their mother to protect and nurture them," she said.
"Instead you took their young lives away."
