Women who abuse children

I used to think that if behind every great man was a woman, then behind every fallen woman there's a man. I was thinking of my life.

The murder and sexual assault of children by women is in a different league entirely. Stories I've read in the past always involved a man, very often a step father or boyfriend. Victoria Climbie, Baby P...

As you know, a slew of female peodophiles have made the news recently.

Vanessa George, a nursery worker, is accused of sexually assaulting children in her care in a nursery on the grounds of a primary school. She had accomplices; Colin Blanchard and Angela Allen who she met on facebook.

All on her own, Ms George is still refusing to disclose which children she abused.

In the Evening Standard (back on October 2nd) it was said that when she comes out of prison, it is likely she will be given a new identity and somewhere new to live to protect her from vigilante attacks. Why oh why oh why are our courts and councils going to protect her?

She is showing no remorse by disallowing parents any closure, not allowing these parents any understanding of the behaviour of their very young children. Can't she stay in prison? Can we put it to a vote?

Behind some fallen women there's a man, behind others there's cruelty beyond any civilian's understanding. That many peodophiles, men and women, were abused as children isn't enough for me though. Is it enough for you?
