Where is the justice?
The first of the three people jailed over Baby P's death has been released from prison, according to reports.
Jason Owen, 39, was serving a six-year sentence for causing or allowing the death of 17-month-old Peter Connelly four years ago.

Sources revealed Owen was released from Wandsworth Prison in southwest London.

His release, just days after the fourth anniversary of Baby Peter's death, comes at the halfway point of his jail term, taking into account the 289 days he spent in custody on remand before he was sentenced.

Owen, from Bromley, Kent, was a lodger at the home of his brother Steven Barker in Tottenham, north London, where Peter died on August 3, 2007.

In May 2009, an Old Bailey judge gave Owen an indeterminate sentence of imprisonment for public protection with a minimum term of three years for his part in the toddler's death.

This meant he could apply for parole after three years but would only be released once the Parole Board was satisfied he no longer posed a risk to the public.

But Owen challenged his sentence at the Court of Appeal and in October 2009 was ordered to serve a fixed six-year jail term instead.

August 3 was the fourth anniversary of Peter's death at the hands of his mother Tracey Connelly, her boyfriend Barker and Owen.

He suffered more than 50 injuries despite being on the at-risk register of Haringey Council in north London and receiving 60 visits from social workers, police and health professionals during the final eight months of his life.

A series of reviews have identified missed opportunities when officials could have saved him if they had acted properly on the warning signs.

Sharon Shoesmith, Haringey's director of children's services at the time of Peter's death, is in line for compensation estimated at up to £1m after Supreme Court judges this week rejected applications to challenge a ruling that she was unfairly sacked following the tragedy.

I think that Shoesmith is getting compensated because the "correct procedures" were not followed to sack her. It's a bloody travesty the whole mess. It's the way these laws are drafted, a clever lawyer just chews them up and gets a big pay day out of it. I think we should go back to natural justice and common dog but the chances of that are absolutely zilch.
