He described the mocked-up photograph of his son via social media as "one of the worst things" he has faced.

BBC Local Live
Chica, a female cat aged about eight, was found by a man in his garden in Trentham Close, East Hunsbury, on Saturday. It is thought her body was thrown into the garden from an alleyway that runs behind it.
The tabby and white cat had green-coloured string around her neck and appeared to have been strangled, the RSPCA said.
RSPCACopyright: RSPCA
RSPCA inspector Susan Haywood said: "Chica was microchipped and so we were able to trace her owners, who live not far from where she was found. Understandably, they are absolutely devastated.
"It does appear that Chica has been strangled and we cannot rule out the possibility that this was done deliberately."
