Not going to happen. Best we can do, is take justice into our own hands. If you witness or become aware of child abuse, do NOT contact the police or social workers....that will bring you nowhere, I am talking from experience. 1. Get a group of people together that can collectively raise R5k. 2. Go to your nearest taxi rank, and seek out the Taxi association. 3. When to speak to their representative, tell them your story and that you need someone to take care of it. 4. You're welcome. 😉

Despite this being very very difficult to watch, this is a reminder of the failing justice and welfare system in our country. Thanks to the efforts of Carte Blanche and former state employees who are willing to assist daily on these difficult cases to help friends and families find some form of closure. There are so many children in need of love and care, however their voices are made silent by the injustice of a failing system. We as communities need to stand up, step in and help in any way we can to stop abuse and domestic violence.

The mother should be locked up

So many people failed this innocent child. My heart bleeds for her. What a heart-wrenching story.

The officials who don't know their duties and those who were ignorant are supposed to be arrested too.

Very impressed by Erin Bates' research and presentation. Unlike so many presenters, she kept herself in the background and did not make this about herself. As a result, the viewer is able to learn from the situation and may be enabled to act sooner if necessary. Well done, Erin!

I tried to report a case of child abuse when a girl ran into my house, vomiting from fear of her stepfather wanting to beat her up. No response from the police. The next morning, the police arrived 8 men strong with patrol vehicles on a case of child kidnapping. Unchain the Child returned the child to the mother, and everyone is still awaiting a court date to appoint a DSD social worker. She has since arrived with yet more bruises and markings at my house, but Unchain keeps on telling me that I should mind my own business. One child was already removed and placed in a place of safety after serious abuse. I think the entire situation is ridiculous, and someone should look into the idiotic cowboy style child protective services of Unchain the Child.

I also reported a case of child abuse from a child in my class last year. I then saw that the teacher from the previous year also reported it. Still to this day nothing has been done. 😢 The social worker came to school and interviewed the child and she denied any type of abuse and that was end of story. Sad thing is that, that child do not even know she is being abused she thinks it is normal. Something needs to be done!

For the police to act means they have to do their job and you can see that the police officer was getting annoyed when the lady was asking questions 😢😢

They just don't get back to ypu. Not in the jurisdiction of where the abuse was committed. 4 months later and I haven't even gotten a court order for being a place of safety. I've now given up.

Just another case demonstrating the consequences of state employees that are not qualified and/or able to do the job that they are paid to do. The police were not procrastenating, that implies they were going to do something eventually. If the guy had an outstanding warrant why did they not use that to act when it was initially reported.

Could this be considered a violation of human rights? Shouldn't child services and law enforcement be held responsible for their actions? It seems hypocritical for a country to pursue justice at the International Court of Justice for crimes against humanity, yet fail to address similar issues within its own borders. Instead, there appears to be a lack of accountability, with officials receiving substantial salaries while taxpayers bear the burden. This situation is deeply concerning and warrants immediate attention.

Unfortunately these are the overlooked failures of the captured state. As bad as it is, that child was spared further abuse and a life of torment.

We hear what you are saying. The problem is the unequal application of rule and law. Watch yourself get arrested and tried for kidnapping when the abusers suddenly turn into concerned parents and the police enforce that side of it without mercy. But alas, at least that may expose the abuse enough to get action taken. I suppose it's worth it to save a child anyhow

Yoh....im so angry... rather delete my full message.... Yoh im angry...

Every official that palmed them off should be arrested for failing in duty. Now If someone had gone into that house and taken the child away, garenteed the police would have been there.

Let’s start our own private “justice for children” group and take matters into our own hands! If the police are not caring then why should we sit back and accept it. It’s not going to change and we all know that. It’s time we fight for the children and do what it takes to help them.

So very sad. This cannot be allowed to carry on - bring back the death penalty, the taxpayer should not bear the burden of feeding & clothing these monsters in jail. I am horrified by this story

And what hurts the most is that there are many families out there wishing and praying for a child. The system is so broken. She could of been saved, adopted and loved.

The world loves "blended families." It is the modern thing. But the reality is that blended family means step parents. And step parents abuse - because it is someone else's child that is in the way. And if the second biological parent is absent there is nobody to protect the child. My mother died when I was 14. My father remarried 6 months later. I became effectively homeless. At least I wasn't a helpless toddler. But the betrayal of the biological parent is the deepest, most long-lasting pain, leaving very deep scars.

Whomever turned these pleas of help away should be held accountable. As a mother it is her DUTY to protect her children to the death. This is so far removed from everything that is right. Nobody should be allowed to be breeding if they can’t tell right from wrong. This is horrifying across the spectrum on so many levels. Poor babies. 😢

Fellow SAns, approach the Dept of Social Development offices when you witness any kind of child abuse. Take the name of any person who will assist you there.
