Re: How come this scumbaga life sentence is only 18 years
Social services have an extremely difficult job. I know several people that work in the field and they are easily the most dedicated, conscientious people I know. They are damned if they do and damned if they don’t. On one hand they get blamed for not intervening quickly enough, on the other they are accused of being over zealous, of interfering and breaking families up. They certainly do not take incidences like this lightly and of course there are investigations with such cases, but short of monitoring people 24 hours a day, you can never ever guarantee that something like this won’t happen again.
As others have said, there’s only one person guilty of causing that child’s death, and he’s in the right place.

In an ideal world kids needing to be adopted or fostered, would find loving parents (male/female) and would be welcomed into a warm friendly safe household.
Whilst same sex couples can also offer the above, you are, whether you like it or not, putting a child into unnatural surroundings..

Probably balancing the demands of dozens of other problematic cases at the same time.

Sadly true. I won't go into details on here, but I came close to losing a family member recently because of the strains social services are under. Easy to blame them but the whole system is overstretched.

If you're taking the piss out of me here, I think it's in bad taste.
Re: How come this scumbaga life sentence is only 18 years
Anyone who has brought up a child knows that they can be very trying (the terrible twos comes to mind!). It requires a heck of a lot of love and patience, qualities that, in my opinion, are to be found more abundantly in women rather than men. Here was a situation where you have an adopted child effectively living with one adult male who is not the biological father (the male partner being away from home a lot it seems) and whose patience was probably stretched to the limit. Most kids including my own can be very trying as I’ve said but I don’t recall ever referring to them as “Satan in a baby-grow”. A truly tragic case.

If anyone reads th acrticle his sentence was life with a MINIMUM sentence of 18 years. That means he has to do at least 18 years with good conduct to even be considered for parole and I'd guess his chances of ever getting parole are pretty slim.
Still being homosexual I imagine he will find a few 'friends' inside.
Some of her injuries were consistent with being hit with force by a blunt instrument
It's likely that was a factor in him being convicted of murder but I am surprised he wasnt charged with manslaughter ........but we don't , as yet , know the details

The Brexit thing is a fair cop, guilty as charged :thumbup: incidently, it's just me being argumentative, I'm not that fussed about it either way.
