Five-year-old Tyler Jackson-Warmington was found stabbed to death at his home
A mother was today charged with murdering her five-year-old son who was found stabbed to death at their home.
Emma Jackson, 40, will appear at Oxford Crown Court tomorrow after Tyler Jackson-Warmington was found knifed following an attack at his terraced home.
The autopsy carried out at a hospital mortuary showed that the primary schoolboy suffered stab wounds to his chest, Thames Valley Police said.
The alarm was raised by a member of the public who was believed to have gone to the family home in Faringdon, Oxfordshire, on March 14 at lunchtime.
Jackson was arrested at the house and taken to cells at the nearby Abingdon police station. She had been receiving hospital treatment following the incident and was charged via a postal summons.

Neighbour Paul Fothergill, 60, said Tyler used to attend Faringdon House Preparatory School before it closed due to financial difficulties last summer.
It is thought that the young boy then went to Faringdon Infants School.
A spokesman for Thames Valley Police said: ‘Emma Jackson, aged 40 of Bromsgrove, Faringdon, has been charged with one count of murder, by postal notification.
‘It is in connection with an incident in which five year old Tyler Warmington was found dead on March 14, 2017 in Faringdon. Jackson will appear at Oxford Crown Court tomorrow.’
