A baker who murdered his baby daughter by shaking her and throwing her onto the floor because he was tired and she wouldn’t stop crying has been jailed in Western Australia for a minimum of 12 years.

Arron Colin Martin, 37, had been tag-teaming care of six-month-old Isabella with his wife Nicole Martin, who was also a shift worker, for less than two months in November 2017 when he killed the infant.
