Biting is such a weird one, so personal somehow. You don’t hear of it happening in many abuse cases either. Very strange that the mother and the stepmother accused of biting
I've never heard so much about biting before this case but my friend was talking to a border force officer (small boats, English channel etc) at the weekend and he said he'd lost count of how often he'd been bitten by immigrants. He is 6ft 5 and big she said.
What do you mean by that?
I'm guessing that she means in his line of work as a Border Force Officer he has been bitten many times by people who are unhappy with his role.
It also happens in hospitals a lot. Many nurses and doctors that I know have been bitten, alongside other assults, by unhappy patients.
In some lines of work you do, unfortunately, encounter biters.
I think US is behind the women biting. It’s so out of the ordinary as a means of abuse because it’s so personal and also so so so easily identified whereas a bruise could have been from anyone. What are the chances he meets two women whom both choose to inflict this very extraordinary method of punishment?? I think it’s them doing it but he has influenced it. It’s just too coincidental and odd to not have come from the common denominator that is US.
I think you are probably right with this. It’s very strange that both women would do that.
It's normally a red flag for SA. A few sexually motivated serial killers did it. Like you say it's personal and highly 'intimate'. But the judge specified that SA wasn't involved in this case so yeah it'sd odd. And creepy.
I'm saying biting is not generally something you hear about as a form of abuse/attack/retaliation, therefore I was shocked at what the man said.
It wouldn't be a first choice for strangers because it entails getting very close to someone. It wouldn't even be something you could do to someone you know as they would be able to fight you off if you were so close.
There are also bodily fluid implications in an age of HIV.
With Sara I am guessing she wasn't able to fight back because she was too weak or she was restrained in some way.
Still catching up so apologies if someone else has elaborated for me.
Biting is really common whenever people have to be restrained - they can’t punch or kick as effectively or at all so they bite. Nurses, police, security guards etc will all have tales of it.
I’ve assumed as no sexual motive the bite on Sara’s thigh was likely because she was resisting being forced to wear a nappy - if BB was restraining her then again she can’t hit her so biting. I wonder if Olga was the same with a younger child who actually needed a nappy as obviously they also wriggle.
While I have no doubts US is to some extent to blame for Olga’s behaviour as @Dinate said the reports have been very clear that Olga had been seen to abuse, heard to abuse and the children had said repeatedly that she hit them too even after she had split with US. Regardless of her vulnerability or US’s behaviour, she had free will and bears responsibility for her own abuse and the contribution that had towards the horrendous life poor Sara had. She is not to blame for US abuse and perhaps he did lie about some aspects and blame them on her but there is plenty of evidence based on what we’ve heard that she was also abusive and hugely failed her daughter. It is unjust to both Sara and her other two children to gloss over that as all US’s fault.
I've been following this story from the beginning and it's just so sad...I saw a clip of Olga and her mom talking about identifying Sara's body, and how if they did not know that it was Sara they would not have recognized her from all the trauma she endured. 
This just left me so haunted.
I hope those two monsters live everyday in misery in prison.

Biting and spitting are pretty common even for ticket inspectors and transport staff tbh. It’s easy to do with no weapon.
Its very uncommon for an adult to leave bite marks on their child especially if there’s no SA
Do we know why Sara wasn't able to stay with Olga? Was Olga physical with her too?
I read there was an older child also removed from her care and that she had abused Sara and her sibling. Dont know what is true but she wasnt a stable parent

I was listening to Emma Kenny’s video about the case. The older boy was seen in a shop & the town centre alone at 3 before Sara was born. That’s what alerted social services to the family I think. Then it was stated he was being hit & there was domestic abuse. Then when sara was born it went to court & they were removed. I didn’t get to the end of it but as somebody else said, Emma Kenny has some information that I’d not heard before.
What did these children endure 
Emma Kenny also says that the kids would go to BB & say they hated their mum that she was weird & an ogre. Emma says she thinks that this is not true as even kids that are being abused will still look up to their parents & love them.
Sometimes kids sat what they think the adult wants them to say
Definitely
