A drink-driver who killed a baby after striking his pram before fleeing the scene could be free from prison in two years.
James Paul Davis has served 12 months of his six-and-a-half year sentence after smashing into little Ciaran Leigh Morris at twice the speed limit.
The uninsured 35-year-old was driving his BMW at 60mph when he hit the two-week-old baby while he was on his first outing with his parents.
Footage from the scene in Walsall, West Midlands, shows the cowardly killer running away as Ciaran's dad Camaron shouts: "You just killed my son!"
Prior to the tragedy, Davis, of Croxtalls Avenue in Bloxwich, had been in court 11 times for a total of 35 offences, including driving without insurance and drink-driving.
He was sentenced at Wolverhampton Crown Court on April 8, having been held in custody following the incident on Easter Sunday last year.
West Midlands Mayor Andy Street has made a written request to Attorney General Suella Braverman, saying the sentence does not match the "seriousness" of the crime.
He has been backed by local councillor Stephen Craddock, who said Davis could be out by 2024 on good behaviour.
Mr Street wrote: "We feel Davis' sentence does not match the seriousness of the crime and the wilful disregard for people's safety shown during previous offences.
“The previous convictions, the serious injury caused to Ciaran's mother, the other offences commitment at the same time (driving without insurance) and the attempt to avoid detection should place this at 'level one' (the most serious) under the sentencing guidelines."
Davis was also banned from driving for seven years and three months.
Cllr Craddock told the Express & Star : "I think it's an absolute disgrace he got six and a half years for this.
"He has served a year on remand and he could be free in just over two years, with a 50 per cent discount, it doesn't seem equitable.
"And the driving ban doesn't seem to make any sense at all, he is a serial offender who knew what he had done. The man is a disgrace – he should have received near the maximum sentence of 14 years for this."
Speaking of their heartache earlier this month, Ciaran's parents said: “Ciaran our precious baby boy, in the short time he was with us, was loved so much.
"The unexpected and sudden circumstances of losing Ciaran has caused great pain and our lives will never be the same without him."
Davis had gone to his girlfriend's home after the crash, where he was eventually arrested.
Bodycam footage played to jurors showed him telling officers how he "aint killed no one on purpose".
Ciaran's mum Codie suffered a broken collar bone and now has constant back pain, the court also heard.
Mum Codie suffered a broken collar bone and a bruised foot in the crash and has constant back pain, jurors heard.
Detective Sergeant Julie Lyman said: “The death of baby Ciaran shocked the community and support poured in for his young parents.
"Their grief at what should have been one of the happiest times of their lives is unimaginable and the conviction of Davis cannot compensate for their loss.
"Our thoughts remain with them and their families.”
