The focus was less on those who were tried and convicted of the death and more about the fallout of a case that shocked us all. And while we were busy at the time turning on individuals, the case was far more complicated than most of us were led to believe. Here was a child who, we were told, was failed by every agency he came into contact with.

A child died in horrific circumstances but the programme highlighted the devastation caused to many by a ‘lynch mob’ public that did not have access to all the facts. Was this ‘Trial by Media?’ The programme revealed that a great many agencies failed to protect Baby P – and that the social workers and child protection policies were just the tip of an ever growing iceberg that implicated significant shortcomings by the police and Ofsted among others.

But we should not lose sight of the fact that an agency was not to blame for the death of Baby P. The people who were are behind bars and rightly so. The reality is that we have to accept shocking events like this will continue to happen even if we put into place preventative measures that will make them less likely.
