This post from David really brought a tear to my eye.

Just caught the verdict as I am at work. Wow! I think the right verdict has been given.
I think it’s just because those professionals are somewhat useless - five unqualified people managed to work out it was suspicious. There’s also the multiple lip injuries where FS was present for at least one (dr’s didn’t think it was accidental), plus the fractured leg she would’ve also learned was non-accidental if she did the bare minimum and took her child to see a doctor. Parts of the puzzle piece professionals might have needed were absent due to FS not doing what a good parent would do.
Ah tit I missed it. Too busy keeping up with this thread, it’s moving so fast at the minute.
I’ve been avoiding the news because of all the Omicron shite, but I had to put it on for this. It’s a bit surreal to see and hear the things we’ve been reading about every day for the last 8 weeks on TV.
DCI Mark Smith made a statement outside the court. The family welcome the verdicts and ask for privacy.
ive Just checked the sky news website and it’s on there now
I had to hold back tears reading Frankie’s verdict, and seeing her mugshot just made it more real. I don’t know why I feel so sorry for her, she obviously did allow the death of her child be it knowing or unknowingly (I’d go for the latter, I think) but that’s something that will now live with her and her family for the rest of their lives. I sincerely hope she gets the rehabilitation and support that she needs throughout and coming out of prison. She just looks so young and naive. Knowing her partner murdered her baby. Good god. You just can’t even fathom can you.
Rest in peace darling Star

See this doesn't compute with me. You can't ask for Privacy having already done an interview with Sky and posted on a site with 20,000 + members. If you want privacy, you take your family and go away.
So you wanted her done for murder/manslaughter even though there was no evidence to say FS did it?
Because that makes total sense, right?
Edit: just seen who I’m replying to
I cant get my head around that at all, and i am a social worker too (along with some other people in here).
I know hindsight is a wonderful thing, but i cant get my head around this. I just watched David in the sky news video, and heard him explaining his experience with SS and it shocked me.
There needs to be something done, i dont know what although i wish i did have the answers. I previously commented about my opinion on the system and the changes i feel need to made from the ground up- starting with the education and training of social workers. I believe the social work team managers need to also be held accountable as they are ultimately the people who sign off everything. I just feel so sad, and so angry, and the death of Star could have been avoided. It is heartbreaking.
As far as I’m concerned either:
1. You’re too thick to understand that mistreating your child is wrong or
2. You know that mistreating your child is wrong even though you’re thick.
The fact that FS was clever enough to get away with as much as she did leads ne to suspect its 2.
She should have got a far heavier punishment.

Does he perhaps mean he doesn’t want to be hounded by journalists on his doorstep. I think that’s reasonable tbh.
No empathy from me. Sympathy for her murdered daughter though.
She literally wasn’t clever though was she. Literally not clever.
Yeah, you are probably right. xx
God the facebook groups are out in full force today, everyone throwing in that Frankie is a murderer and needs to be killed. Sick of these people 
yes I remember your posts, I agree completely with everything you said. They need a lot of investment and a lot of improvement and changes because it’s not good enough as it stands and it’s not the fault of social workers when you look at the bigger picture. But in this instance, it wasn’t just one person raising concerns, there were a few. They’ve witnessed bruising and just said ok that’s malicious, nothing to see here, case closed. It’s not good enough for the friends and families that reported their concerns, to be categorised as trouble causers and then for this to happen must cause them untold pain and it’s needs looking into as a minimum.
