A three-year-old boy drowned his newborn twin brother and left the other permanently brain damaged as he tried to bathe them while his alcoholic mother slept.
The boy said he wanted to make his siblings 'nice and clean' after their mother passed out having drunk four cans of super-strength lager.
Days later, one of the boys died in his father's arms. His brother, who suffered a cardiac arrest, was left with severe brain damage.
She was handed a one-year prison sentence, suspended for two years, and a supervision order after pleading guilty to three counts of neglect.
The judge described the mother as 'in general terms, a loving and caring mother who understands the duties and responsibility of motherhood'.
She added: 'Your real punishment will lie in the images that will stay with you, possibly permanently, of what happened that day.'
