Doctors failed to pass details of ‘significant’ injuries suffered by Logan Mwangi, 5, to child services 11 months before his murder - in a ‘systemic’ failure, case review finds
Logan Mwangi’s stepbrother Craig Mulligan was named in court after a judge lifted an anonymity order against him.The review found that the failing in communication that led to his death was not an ‘isolated instance,’ ‘individual error’ or ‘poor practice’.
The injuries included a 1cm blue mark above the child's penis. Logan's mother Angharad Williamson told the Health Board she did not know how the mark had occurred. He said he had fallen down the stairs and agreed when his mother gave the cause of the bruising to his ears as being from a mask worn due to the pandemic.The review concluded that there was no evidence that information about the injuries recorded by the doctor was shared with agencies outside of the Health Board and there had been no one-to-one sessions with Logan outside of his family home.
"The review panel believes that these issues may be systemic, and not isolated instances of individual error or poor practice." Cole had previous convictions including assault on a child, possession of an offensive weapon, theft and illegal drug possession, and had served a prison sentence for burglary.
Police checked Cole's convictions and it was "agreed at that time he was not an appropriate person to solely care" for Logan or Mulligan.
