Southport inquiry finds missed chances
The inquiry revealed that Axel Rudakubana's parents and several social services failed to raise the alarm despite clear warning signs of his escalating behavior.
A headteacher who warned that Rudakubana was 'high risk' told the inquiry she was silenced by accusations of racial profiling.
The families of the three young girls killed in the attack are now calling for disciplinary action against the officials involved.
The findings have sparked a national debate over the adequacy of child mental health services and the effectiveness of multi-agency information sharing.
