Star Hobson’s killer stepmother is alleged to have joked with fellow prisoners that she has ‘buried three more babies’.
Savannah Brockhill was jailed for life last year for murdering Star and the youngster’s mother, Frankie Smith, 20, was handed an eight-year sentence for allowing her daughter’s death.
Now, serving her sentence at HMP Styal, in Cheshire, Brockhill has allegedly joked around killing other children.
Former inmate Amy Louise Cowan claims she overheard Brockhill joking about killing three other children, Sunday People reports.

Cowan claims to have been cleaning the wing of the prison where Brockhill is being kept on New Year’s Day, when she heard the words.
She added that: ‘Savannah is cold and callous. I never once saw her cry.’
Cowan also claims that Brockhill was left angry by the sentence handed to Smith, saying ‘it’s not right’.
During her trial, Bradford Crown Court heard details of the horrific injuries inflicted upon Star and the vicious treatment she suffered at the hands of Brockhill and Smith.

Star’s fleeting life came to an end after being ‘punched, stamped on, or kicked’ in the stomach by Brockhill, while Smith left the living room to go to the bathroom, the court heard.
The savagery in September last year left Star with a ruptured vein that led to bleeding in her abdominal cavity.
Cowan told Sunday people that Brockill was known to refer to Star as ‘my girl’, saying that she missed the girl every day, but then on other days would blame her for causing trouble with Smith.
It comes after last month, when Star’s mother phoned her grandfather David Fawcett – who is one of the two relatives who speaks to her – earlier this week to moan about her jail term after the Attorney General urged a review into the ‘lenient’ sentence.

She was given just eight years in prison – meaning she could be out in four – after a judge reduced her sentence to account for the ‘burden’ of knowing she played a significant role in the death of her 16-month-old daughter.
Star’s family previously slammed the ‘staggeringly soft’ sentences handed out and urged the Attorney General to review the case under the unduly lenient sentencing scheme.
A spokesperson for the Attorney General’s Office confirmed last month they received a request for the sentences to be examined, and law officers have 28 days from the date the terms were given to consider the case and make a decision.
While Star Hobson’s mother was also warned she is a ‘marked woman’ after being put on the lifers’ wing at HMP New Hall where notorious serial killer Rose West is also locked up.

Smith is understood to be serving her time in a single cell alongside ‘lifers’ at the closed category prison in West Yorkshire.
However, she is said to have a target on her back and is a likely target of an attack after details of Star’s death emerged at trial.
A source told The Sun Online: ‘She’s a marked woman and it won’t be long before someone gets to her.
‘She’s on the lifers’ wing so there are plenty of women with very little to lose who will attack her for the price of a few bars of chocolate or some toiletries.’
In an alarming post online, another person wrote: ‘Leave her cell door open’.
