MOTHER HAS HAD ANOTHER CHILD WHILST ON REMAND
The mother of Baby P, the North London toddler who died after suffering horrific abuse, has given birth to another baby while on remand over the death.
The mother is reported to be taking legal action to gain access to her latest child. She has also told friends that she will be home in time for Christmas, a police source said.
From The TimesNovember 12, 2008
After 17 months of unimaginable cruelty, Baby P finally succumbed. When the infant known in court only as Baby P was brought home from hospital days after his birth in March 2006, it was as a bubbly, blue-eyed boy with the first signs of curly blond hair. He was, according to those who came into contact with him, a lively child with a ready smile.
After 17 months enduring abuse of an almost unimaginable cruelty, the boy had been reduced to a nervous wreck, his hair shaved to the scalp and his body covered in bruises and scabs. Physical injuries included eight broken ribs, a broken back and the missing top of a finger, while the emotional damage was almost incalculable. Despite it all, Baby P was said to have still attempted a smile.
