She was jailed a total of 10 years - including seven-and-a-half for causing or allowing the death of a child and two-and-a-half years for child cruelty, to be served consecutively.
The judge told Barton:"I am sure you knew Jacob's plight was serious. You failed to take such steps that you reasonably should have been expected to have undertaken.Crouch, of Moira in Leicestershire, remained silent in the dock, while Barton, of Heanor, Derbyshire, and members of the public gallery wept during the hearing.
A post-mortem examination found he had died as a result of peritonitis - an infection of the lining of the abdominal organs - caused by a traumatic bowel perforation. Further examinations found Jacob also had 39 rib fractures, 19 visible bruises and internal injuries, which Dr Biggs likened to those seen in car crash victims or those who had suffered a multi-storey fall.Detectives investigating the case said for much of Jacob's short life,"he would have been in significant pain as a result of the serious and repeated assaults".
