Det Ch Insp Kath Way of Kent Police , said: " Today's verdict will not bring Alfie back, but it does mean that Hedges and Benham lose their right to freedom and life as they know it.
" Alfie should have been protected and loved by his mum, instead Hedges and Benham inflicted unimaginable suffering on him during a sustained and Lengthy Night of violence. "
She added Alfie would now be aged four and would have recently started school.
" Instead, his life was cruelly Taken Away by those he should have been able to trust The Most , " She Said .

Kellie Ann Fitzgerald, National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC) assistant director for local services, said the death of any child was " devastating".
