Mabli Hall: Woman, 70, pleads guilty to causing baby girl’s death by dangerous driving

A woman has pleaded guilty to causing the death of a baby girl by dangerous driving.

Mabli Cariad Hall, who was eight months old, died after the pram she was in was struck by a white BMW car outside Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, in June last year.

Mabli was airlifted to the University Hospital of Wales in Cardiff for treatment, and later moved to Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, but died four days later, on Sunday 25 June.

Bridget Curtis, 70, appeared at Swansea Crown Court on Friday morning.

Judge Geraint Walters granted her unconditional bail until her sentencing hearing on 22 November.

An inquest opened last July heard Mabli had died of severe traumatic brain injuries.

Mabli was a “precious angel”, her family said in a statement released after her death.

They added they would never forget the “love and support” they had received.

Her parents Rob and Gwen Hall said they were “absolutely heartbroken” and that Mabli was “adored” by them and her five siblings.

They said she had “brought [them] so much joy in her short life”.

They thanked the emergency services, including staff at Withybush Hospital, the University Hospital of Wales and Bristol Children’s Hospital.

In the days after Mabli’s death, a GoFundMe page set up by family friend Sinead Morris to support them raised over £25,000.

Dyfed-Powys Police said Mabli’s family is receiving support from officers and hospital bereavement services.
