Baby P's mother would pose 'risk' if she was ever around children

Baby P's monster mother could pose a high risk if she were freed and allowed near children, experts fear.

Tracey Connelly's toddler son died at home in Tottenham, north London, on August 3, 2007, and she pleaded guilty to causing or allowing the death of a child in 2008.

The 43-year-old launched a fresh bid for freedom earlier this year after she was sent back to jail for breaching licence conditions.

But in a judgement ordering that a two-day parole hearing is heard in public, the Parole Board said it will assess whether her risk of violence remains low, The Mirror reports.

'But risk would be high and potentially imminent if she were to have access to children while other risk factors are present', the judgement said.
