The “war on blacks” narrative fueling the defund-the-police movement led, predictably, to higher murder rates, particularly in black neighborhoods. It’s an example of how identity politics kills. And now it has apparently done so again, claiming the life of a 16-month-old girl.
Little Star Hobson was being horrifically abused in her home in Keighley, England. Yet her great-grandparents’ warnings to authorities were dismissed as being motivated by dislike for the toddler’s lesbian, gypsy stepmother.
The Daily Mail summarizes the story:
- Social services were called at least five times over the killer couple’s actions
- But they believed lies from Frankie Smith, 20, and Savannah Brockhill, 28
- Smith — Star’s mother — and Brockhill presided over reign of cruelty to the girl
- They hoodwinked social workers her injuries were from clumsy accidents
