Harrowing recordings of two 999 calls made by a father accused of murdering his 18-month-old adoptive daughter have been released. Facebook Twitter Pinterest Elsie Scully-Hicks was found to have suffered subdural bleeding and fractures to her skull, three ribs and a leg. He said: “She just took a breath in but it’s, she’s not breathing out.”The operator told him how to do mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. He said: “Let it out love, let it out love, let it out babe.”He told the girl: “Elsie, Elsie, stay with me love. Good girl, Elsie, Elsie, Elsie, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake Elsie … Elsie stay awake love, stay awake … Elsie come on.”He appeared to go away from the phone to fetch a rattle-like toy and kept talking to Elsie.
