I seem to remember it on the news. I've tried ages to find it but can't. Don't know how to search for it properly as it is old news.
You would think then that any company that sends people to homes with children should check their wrkers first.

what the 5 year old was on her own ? or did the mother leave him to look after her kids while she popped to the shops ?

ah one i didn't think of
even if they did CRB ( which you may guess i disagree with them doing lol ) then thats a good point because the CRB assessor or those they advise on giving the job may well have decided that any convictions spent or otherwise were not bad enough to deny them a job
plus in those circumstance they would not be able to tell other staff or any body in the company who did not need to know ( there is some very hefty penalties for revealing this privilaged information that those of us who get these CRBs to read would get for revealing this information )
