Article here. Excerpt:
'The father of murdered baby Aaron Gilbert has accused social services of not doing enough to save his son.
Aaron was subjected to a torrent of abuse from Andrew Lloyd, aged 23, who had moved in with Aaron's mother Rebecca Lewis after starting a relationship with her.
He pleaded guilty to murdering the 13-month-old and 21-year-old Lewis was found guilty of familial murder for allowing the abuse to continue.
Now Aaron's father Gareth Gilbert has said more should have been done to protect his son.
Sharon Hurlow, a cousin of Lewis, called social services on two occasions before Lloyd inflicted the fatal injuries to Aaron on May 5 last year.'
