Care authorities have refused to allow a High Court judge to read a confidential report into their handling of two young brothers who sadistically tortured two children and left them for dead.
The report, prompted by an horrific attack on two children aged 9 and 11 in Edlington, near Doncaster, is said to reveal numerous failings by care professionals who dealt with the brothers and their violent family over years. A copy was leaked to the BBC, which says the report details 31 occasions on which nine different agencies failed to take action over the brother’s offending behaviour before the Edlington attack last April.
So, why doesn't the BBC do the right thing and give the judge a copy of the report? I find it incredible that the care authorities are ignoring the judge's request. Perhaps, he should bring them before him and sentence them for contempt of court?
UPDATE: Indefinite detention for 'sadistic' torture boys
Now isn't it time that those who tortured suspected terrorists are put on trial for torture and sentenced?
The findings of a serious case review will be published this afternoon. A copy leaked to the BBC found that various agencies missed more than 30 opportunities to intervene with the family.
