Poppi Worthington death: No charges to be brought

There is insufficient evidence to charge a man over the death of his 13-month-old daughter, the CPS has said, months after a judge ruled he had sexually assaulted her.

Poppi Worthington was found with serious injuries at her home in Barrow, Cumbria, in December 2012.

In January, a judge ruled she had been sexually assaulted by her father.

Poppi's father Paul Worthington was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault. He denies any wrongdoing.

Prosecutors originally decided there was insufficient evidence "to provide a realistic prospect of conviction", but in January the CPS said it was reviewing the case.

A second inquest into the toddler's death is due to take place in the autumn.
