So that's the day after she went missing, before it was reported?

She went missing on the 18th

Allocating a social worker to a family can take weeks from the time of an initial referral.
A social worker was clearly already on it on the 22nd of July.
Proof of previous social involvement now public information.
Phew

Bee went missing on the 18th, so unless the SW held on to the information for days (which goes against Working Together to Safeguard Children 2018 guidance) then someone else must have told the social worker...perhaps one of the other children? Could even be one of her friends Social Workers.

Sorry, I just went by the thread title.

Perhaps the report is wrong.

We have trial reporting that says Sarah notified police on 101 on the 22nd July, the day after reporting Bee missing.

Maybe a friend contacted social services about Bee being missing and the SA allegations after becoming suspicious about texts sent By SAW pretending to be Bee? Social services may not have been involved before this? Anyone could have contacted them anonymously with their concerns.

Yes, not familiar with the source provided myself.

 

[Sarahlou]

Very pleased to see ScW has been found guilty!

 

[Sooty]

Is this new information? We have speculated on here about social services many times.

The allegations Bea had made about being sexually abused by her father were passed to police via a social worker on 22 July. SOURCE

interesting to read the note in full on there. SAW saying the other kids mattered more….

Yes poor Bernadette she was right too.

Wow! I have a lot of posts to catch up on!

I was on the bus when I saw the verdict, actually said ' yes, guilty! ' out loud. Got a few strange looks

 

[jackal67]

Oh come on Jury ! Surely they can see what most of us have ?

 

[MrsBrooks]

So who would of told the social worker about the abuse allegations though?

Possibly the grandmother? - her conscience creeping up with her when ScW and SaW reported B missing? - I find it hard to believe that she felt completely comfortable with ScW collecting B the following morning. Perhaps, like us and the LE, she too thought this was suspicious behaviour MOO. She must of been impacted from seeing B crying begging to be believed. Maybe although she didn’t feel she could stop B going with ScW she could report it? Moreover, the public comments I have read on social media and news articles from members of Walker family (according to the commenters) give the impression they thought ScW was guilty quite early on.

I am done with them. A disgrace. I made my feelings know the other week and they were deleted from here too. A disgrace of a paper. Employed the murderer for years and then failed to report a single day from court

Scott worked for them so you think that’s why they havnt been reporting a lot?

 

[MissMarbles]

Have just watched a report today on BBC News, rewound the channel using iplayer it's at around 3.15pm.

I think it may have been one of the friends of BW that SaW was texting with BWs phone.

Sarah is guilty on both charges

SaW guilty on both counts,... but which ?

 

[Invisibletotheeye]

I assume it's the ones she didn't plead guilty to ?

Knowing Bernadette was dead was she already plead guilty to not knowing she was dead
