Jesus, three (sets of) child deaths in as many weeks, and that's just what's being widely reported ... Were the social services involved in this family too?

[Mystic Mock]

Why didn't she get a family member or a close friend to watch them while she goes shopping?

Yes the best way to be.

The Mother now
is out on Bail.

Struggling with this one, it's not like the Dad or his family weren't involved in their lives and her Mum is in the area as well, so it is inexplicable that she thought it was okay to pop out even for a short time
