To be seething he got away with it *trigger warning*

[NotAnotherNameChangeAgain]

I'm so angry.
I probably shouldn't be posting for anonymits reasons but I don't care.
A few years ago I had to run away from my job as a Nanny having been witness to Dad Boss severely physically abusing his child. (Welt maresults, hand prints and bruises on child hours later) I had been working for the family for a while, whilst I suspected abuse before this had been the first time I'd have concrete proof.
I left immediately and called the police, who upon seeing the marks on the child for themselves arrested the Dad.
I have no heard from the family since that night and after being interviewed by the police (and the RSPCC for good measure) heard very little.
I heard that other staff members came forward, there were some reports of further physical abuse, sexual abuse and extensive verbal abuse. There are 3 children.
I heard that a social worker had been assigned to their case.

It took a long long time but I managed to put it mostly behind me. Confident that SS were on the case and that the mother could perhaps now escape with the kids. It took me a while to shake off the fear that the Dad (who is extremely wealthy) was going to send someone after me.

Since then I've been trying to get on with it and have been honest about the almost 2 year gap in my CV despite some parents at interview being less than supportive (1 parent told me I "overreacted" by calling the police and should have just talked to the parents)

I have just found out that the parents are together and have emigrated with their family to a mansion in an exotic location (I've been there. It's heaven). Despite photp evidence from myself and the arresting officers and numerous statements from a variety of witnesses - he got away with it.
He now lives with his children in paradise.

I loved those children with all my heart.
AIBU to be beside myself with anger?

I still have the original reference number at home. I'm going to follow up when I get back (I'm in Egypt at the moment)

It must have been the NSPCC but it was a while ago so I'm afraid I can't be certain. I spoke to an extremely friendly lady who was an officer of some kind and she took a LOT more detail from me about the incident, the history and a profile of the Dad etc.

I can only presume he hired a very good lawyer and they managed to wiggle through with reasonable force?
It's not against the law to hit your own child

It is against the law if you leave a mark - which you say he did.
