That poor, poor baby. I have an almost three year old boy. I can't even imagine. He's an evil cunt, but she deserves to rot too. Doesn't deserve the title of mother.

I feel sick reading this, remember when it was first reported, I still have memory of video of little Daniel Pelka (killed by his mother) running to try and catch up with the mother, breaks my heart how unwanted and confused these little mites must have felt in their short and utterly tragic lives

LatteLove · 02/09/2019 23:28

It’s just awful. So glad he’s been convicted but disgusting that it’s manslaughter and not murder.

Shockers · 02/09/2019 23:29

The article says that social services had previously been involved in Alfie’s care.

Sparklesocks · 02/09/2019 23:29

I feel sick thinking about this, how scared he must’ve been and how painful. Poor little thing❤️

dellacucina · 02/09/2019 23:32

I'm so sorry I clicked on that.

sweetkitty · 02/09/2019 23:41

Two of them should be locked up forever, life should mean life.

Justaboy · 02/09/2019 23:43

Well I just hope that when this pile of shite does get banged up some of the decent cons there will effect some real justice on him and beat the shit, or better still life, out of him and to that woman shes a disgrace to every decent mum and woman around:(

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 02/09/2019 23:59

Just horrific. Poor little angel baby. There is no excuse none whatsoever. If you arent fit to be a parent put them up for adoption but dear god dont inflict this horror on an innocent baby.

OneSliceIsNeverEnough · 03/09/2019 00:09

RIP little Alfie. I hope you are somewhere safe and at peace now x

This.

The poor little thing, I hope he's safe and happy at last.

hittheroadjack1 · 03/09/2019 00:34

This is awful. That poor little boy.

slashlover · 03/09/2019 00:57

I don't understand why people are deliberately searching out youtube videos of him, it seems a bit...wrong to me?

PumpkinP · 03/09/2019 01:18

I’m not sure where people are seeing the video as I didn’t notice any on the news page it does seem abit odd to search for videos

mathanxiety · 03/09/2019 02:35

I saw that video a good while back. I believe it was in the DM coverage of the crime, but it's now on YT.

recreationalcalpol · 03/09/2019 06:04

Truly awful. Has anyone got the serious case review for this? I can’t seem to find it

EleanorReally · 03/09/2019 06:18

such nasty people

Honeypie19 · 03/09/2019 06:42

I wish id not read this again - seeing his title face when it happened killed me. to think my once ds was that age and someone would try to do that to him - the person wouldn't be standing when id finished with him but it ills me knowing his mother sat right there and did nothing.

then covered her own sons death up to stay with him knowing he'd killed her son - wtf?? just how? on what realm did she think thats what she should do. I agree to sterilisation and much much worse on this couple.

DoomsdayCult · 03/09/2019 06:53

I thoughts saddest part was reading how when being crushed, Alfie cried out for his mum and she slapped him. To have that be the last thing you see/hear/feel while being murdered is.....no words...it is like hell on Earth.

EugenesAxe · 03/09/2019 06:57

I saw the video on the news item about it tonight. I didn’t ‘search it out’ Hmm

tmh88 · 03/09/2019 07:05

I wish I didn’t see this again the pain the child must of felt physically turns my stomach. All any normal person wants to do is protect their child she should of been done for manslaughter too! Makes me feel physically sick! When I saw it on the news last night all I could think was I would want to murder anyone who harmed my child.

BlueEyedEagle · 03/09/2019 07:16

Nothing that has ever happened to another person has ever affected me as much as this.

I agree.

There have been a few other cases that have really stuck with me but this one has affected me worse of all. Possibly because I have a child the same age.

The mother is the lowest of scum allowing anyone to harm her baby and hurting him further when he needed her to help more than ever.

I could honestly scream it makes me so so angry!

leckford · 03/09/2019 07:16

Women like this should be sterilised by law so they can’t have more kids to abuse.

snipples · 03/09/2019 07:55

They should both be sterilized. Utterly horrific to think either of them could breed again. That poor poor boy. I just can't get my head around it at all.

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 03/09/2019 08:35

Read some more. So the bastard who did it is the adopted son of an ex-Tory MP? But he seems rough as a feral animal. Then his sister the child's aunt was in the car and did nothing but has the audacity to be in the newspaper bemoaning her 'nephews' fate and saying how she used to spoil himHmm. The nerve.

Trash. Pure utter trash the lot of them.

BlueEyedEagle · 03/09/2019 09:21

And the sad reality is that we will feel more sadness for the death of Alfie, a child whom we never met, then his parents ever will.
