god, i am in oz and this is the first time i heard about this poor little girl...
DOCS has changed their policies regarding the reporting of children at risk after three major incidents with children at risk that, sadly, passed away. Teachers, doctors and nurses can now be de-registered if they fail to report any kind of abuse.
Too late for this little one, hope the person in charge of her case is held responsible...
I read during the trial that a neighbour would time the length of the 'whippings' to give as evidence to DSS.
Tanillia and her little body is at rest now.
Thank you Ausgirl for all your links as I could not find them myself.
