  1. I don’t know how the fuck I’ll sleep after watching the sentencing and hearing of the immense torture and suffering Finley was subjected to. Holy shit.

  2. That cafcas rep who recommended less transition time and the social worker who witnessed a drug deal before the baby died should face charges. Poor, poor wee baby, he never stood a chance back with these two.

  3. Some justice. They’ll not have a great time in prison I expect.

    The social worker should be struck off at the very least and there should be widespread changes in protocol.

  4. What I find incomprehensible is that they put effort into getting him back, they could’ve just let it go but they wanted a child to abuse. Real life monsters.

  5. I can’t help but hug my little boy extra tight whenever stories like this hit the news. Utterly heart breaking what that poor little boy went through.

  6. I don’t generally cry much but when I first heard about the systematic torture and ongoing pain this poor lad lived with, I completely broke down. Even typing this now is hard having to fight back tears.

    The confusion and suffering of a little boy looking up at the only people who could help him is something that has kept me awake sometimes.

    RIP young lad, I wish I could have saved you.

  7. My son is 10 months old.
    It’s absolutely heartbreaking how anyone could even think of doing any of this.

    All I can think of is how sad and alone he must have felt.

  8. Bottom feeders, they are the lowest of the low.

    Well atleast they will get hell inside do your nonce wing .

    With all the others low life beast.

  9. Spare a thought for the poor foster parents who kept him safe and loved from the day he was born until they had to hand him over to these scumbags.

  10. I don’t even want to read what they did to him, I just know there were masses of injuries. That poor boy. Failed by so many. Just breaks my heart how someone could do this, hope they have sleepless nights the pair of them, they don’t deserve the safety of their cells either

  11. I struggle with folk like this. I’m generally pretty liberal and rehabilitative, but I dunno. What’s the point investing time and money in people capable of doing such irretrievably wicked, unforgivable things?

  12. Hopefully, those two scumbags get tortured every single day for the rest of their miserable, stinking lives. This story has absolutely sickened me.

  13. Seeing his cute little face on news sites today has really got to me. It made me ache with sadness and despair for the poor little boy.

  14. So I’ve read into some really awful cases of child death, and obviously it’s horrendous and upsetting, but reading the details of what happened to Finley has had me crying on and off all day and close to vomiting. I have never read anything so horrific. I have a 7 month old son, and it upsets me when he cries for even a second. I just cannot fathom parents who would do this. And unfortunately it’s another example of a child (like Star and Arthur) who was let down during the pandemic by the services who should have protected them. That child should never have been returned to them and thinking about what they put him through breaks my heart.
