My daughters attacker found guilty in court today.

My daughter who was 4 years old at the time had been regularly beaten and sexually abused by a man who entered into my childrens lives. The trial lasted three weeks and he was found guilty today on 9 separate charges, some of which are the sexual assault and attempted murder on my 4 year old daughter, rape of a 14 year old girl and a string of other assaults on women. Sentencing has not been handed out yet as a psychological assessment has to be done first but the judge presiding said "you can expect to spend many years in prison".

I'm happy that he has been found guilty, there was a period where I thought it may have come to a not proven verdict. There was a two week period where my daughter had been seriously assaulted from Christmas through to January and ended up on life support. She had been presented to me with bruises just before Christmas which had been explained as a fall down stairs and that medical attention had been sought. This was a lie told to me by the mother which at the time I had no reason to doubt. The next time I saw her was getting a text message two weeks later telling me she was in hospital on a life support machine and the explanation given to me about what happened was also another lie from the mother. Many lies and inconsistencies from the mother were highlighted in the court during the trial, in fact this was the basis of his defence and blaming the mother, but why she even lied (not only to me but to professionals as well) is making me wonder how much involvement she had. She can only be covering up for something. If you saw your own child in that state you would do something at least tell someone. I've been getting told of some vile and disgusting things that the mother has been involved in which if any of it is true then she should never be anywhere near any children. What she has done and said doesn't make sense other than she is covering up for herself. And also to this date she has never shown any kind of remorse as to what has happened. She has always only looked out for herself, her number one priority is herself. I'm actually believing she prostituted the children out. I'm trying to do everything I can to get custody of my children but Social Work keep putting barriers in my way and have done nothing to help me yet given all the help and support to the mother??? There are very serious question marks about the mother to which the Social Work have completely ignored!!!

I'm so sorry. Glad they found the bastard guilty

I am very sorry that you are struggling right now. But I am glad he was found guilty. In my experience social services has never done their job. I will keep you in my prayer.
