Central Coast child murder sparks system failure inquiry
A four-year-old boy was allegedly murdered by his mother on the Central Coast, with police investigating cannibalism and ordering special DNA analysis. Child protection workers had reportedly visited the family three times during the boy's short life, prompting questions about systemic failures. The NSW Minister for Families and Communities has ordered an independent review to examine how the department handled the case and why the child remained in his mother's care despite the documented history.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
