“I just knew.. this is not about my child”

We have had several requests in the comments for a separate blog on this topic – afaik we have not had any material, links or suggested content submitted to the blog team so apologies if this does not cover everything some want raised.

In the Insight interview with Aine Tyrell and her mother Sally on allegations of child abuse by Liam Adams there are questions for the RUC/PSNI. Sally alleges the police were more interested in using her to obtain information (7:10) than investigating the abuse claims. Social Services were aware of the allegations at this stage.

Aine confirms (10:40) she later informed the police she did not want to proceed with a case while not retracting her evidence.

ADDS: Pete’s earlier entry also addressed some of the questions being directed at the police and social services.
