Yes. And your heart goes out to his surviving sister too, who knows what that child's been through
It's easy to rush to judgement on the apparent non-involvement of agencies like social services and the school here. It might be better to wait for the serious case review findings particularly when Mrs Justice Cox specifically commented:
//Both of you constructed a careful and wholly untruthful account that Daniel had a serious eating disorder and learning difficulties, which he may have inherited and for which he was receiving medical treatment. This account was deliberately designed to prevent interference by school, medical and welfare personnel, and to perpetuate the brutality being meted out to him. You instructed and encouraged Daniel's older sister to tell lies to the authorities if she were asked any questions about what was happening at home.//

According to the Daily Mail the step father had already been in jail 3 times in this country, and arrested 6 times for assault, burglary etc.
Pity we did not send him back to Poland after the first time in prison.
Now a poor child has lost their life.
And we in the UK have to pay for both of these people to be in prison for 30 years.
And pay to look after the surviving child.
All thanks to our membership of the EU.

Death would be far too good for them.

No, it would be appropriate and save the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of pounds over the next 30 years.
Systematic abuse, torture, neglect and ultimately the murder of the most vulnerable member of society deserves the death penalty, nothing less.

Chili, I totally understand that sentiment, I really do, but they would suffer just a short period of fear and then it would be over. Far better I think, to wonder if their food is safe to eat or has it been "got at" by another prisoner needing the toilet (it happens), are the stairs going to be slippery today? No, they need to live in fear just as that poor little by did.
