A man's pleaded not guilty to the murder of a five-week-old baby.

34-year-old Sean Jefferson from Walsall was charged by Staffordshire Police last month - and will now go on trial in January next year.

He also denies causing/allowing the death of a child and two counts of Section 18 grievous bodily harm with intent.

33-year-old Amy Leigh Clark from Lichfield was also charged with the same offences - but has yet to enter a plea.
