The mother of Baby P who was tortured to death has been recalled to prison after breaching her licence conditions.
Tracey Connelly, 42, the mother of Peter who died after months of abuse, has been recalled back to jail.
The tragic death of 17-month-old baby Peter sparked outrage in 2007 after he was found dead in their north London home.
Peter had been in Connelly’s care when he died in the hands of her paedophile partner Steven Barker. The tot had suffered more than 50 horrific injuries in eight months before his death.
Connelly was jailed in 2009 indefinitely for causing or allowing her son’s death, but in 2022 she was freed from prison.
Her actions were described as ‘cruelty’ and ‘pure evil’ by the then Justice Secretary Dominic Raab as he opposed her release.
Now Connelly has been recalled again, MailOnline reports.
A spokesperson for the HM Prison and Probation Service told the outlet: ‘Offenders released on licence are subject to strict conditions and we do not hesitate to recall them to prison if they break the rules.’
It came after she was previously released on licence in 2013 before being recalled two years later for breaching her parole conditions by allegedly selling her nude pictures.
Baby Peter’s death sparked outrage as he had been on a register for at-risk children and received dozens of visits from Haringey Council’s social workers, medical professionals and police before his death.
Her grandmother Mary O’Connor told the Sun previously she never wants to see her daughter out of prison.
Mary, a cancer sufferer who was given a terminal diagnosis in 2022 when her daughter was freed, said: ‘She needs to be in jail for life, she shouldn’t be out.’
