A murder in England: – The murder of the star (16 months)

The Hobson star was only 16 months old when she was murdered at her home in Kelly, West Yorkshire in September 2020.

In December 2021, the mother’s friend, 28, was convicted of the murder and sentenced to life in prison, according to a West Yorkshire Police press release.

“catastrophic damage”

Meanwhile, Starr’s mother, 20, was sentenced to eight years in prison for causing – or allowing – her daughter’s death.

The judge ruled in court that Starr had become a victim of the toxic relationship between the couple, and that the child had suffered “catastrophic injuries” by the 28-year-old, according to the BBC.

The 28-year-old was a former amateur boxer.

According to the judge, it was the 28-year-old’s fatal blow or kick, delivered with tremendous force, that damaged Starr’s internal organs and caused fatal internal bleeding, The Independent wrote.

He will appeal the ruling

This week, it became clear that she decided to appeal the ruling.

The 28-year-old now claims Starr’s mother is responsible for the fatal kick that led to the child’s death, according to the Manchester Evening News.

The court ruled in December last year that the violent attack was not a one-time event:

The coroner found a number of other injuries to her body, including two brain injuries, broken bones, broken ribs and skull fractures, according to Sky News.

– Barbarian at all

In a press release, Detective Mark Swift, who led the investigation into the case, called the couple’s actions “utterly barbaric.”

– This is one of the most disturbing and outrageous cases our team has ever seen. The star was a little girl who had her her whole life ahead of her, and tragically died in the hands of those who would have protected and cared for her, says Swift.

At the trial, it turned out that family and friends had repeatedly submitted complaints to the child care service, including the bruises they saw on the little girl. Sky News writes.

In any case, the mother and her boyfriend managed to convince the social workers that the signs on the girl were caused by accidents, and that the complaints were made by people who did not like their relationship.

Criticizes the child’s welfare

Each time, child care officials must have concluded that the child was safe with the mother (20) and her boyfriend (28).

Later, the child care service came under fire for not doing more to protect the girl child, The Independent wrote.

In the wake of this tragic event, the English City Council of Bradford in West Yorkshire was denied responsibility for the care of children in the city. Reports, among others, Sky News and The Independent.

After a three-month investigation – and a shocking report to Education Minister Nadim Zadhafi – responsibility for the Child Welfare Department will now be transferred to a new, independent institution.

Protecting vulnerable children from injury is not up for debate. Al-Zahawi told The Independent that when the city council does not meet its obligations to do so, we will take action to protect children and put their needs first.
