A story that needs to be heard | just4play's Blog

Whilst i was away on holiday last week,a terrible story was unfolding here in the uk.The trial of two men...accused of the abuse and murder of a tiny 17 month child.

This child,known publicly as "baby p",suffered at least 8 months of beating and torture at the hands of his own mother,her lover,and their friend.

When police were finally called to the family home,baby p was dead in his blood spattered crib,his back was broken,as were 8 of his ribs.His ear lobe was ripped from his battered head.He had been punched in the mouth causing  tooth to be knocked back in his throat and swallowed.HE WAS 17 MONTHS!!!!!not even old enough to know wrong from right.

Further examination discovered fingernails pulled out,one fingertip missing completely,and over 50 injuies to his tiny body.

And you know why all this is even more sickening???he was known to social services,even removed from the house for suspected abuse,yet they returned him to his torturers,He was seen by a "doctor" in hosital only two days before he died,the doctor failed to spot a break in his spine nor the shattered ribs....that poor baby must have been in agony..the doctor noted the child was"cranky"so they didnt complete the examination.

Both men have been found guilty of causing death and sentanced....as has the mother who admitted it. none  have been found guilty of murder simply because the jury could not determine who struck the fatal blows.The whole of the UK is outraged.....i'm speechess,i cant find the words...i look at my 17 month old son,and my heart breaks.These are pictures of baby p(peter)
