22 May: The
second serious case review into Peter's death concludes that child protection staff should have been able to stop the abuse "at the first serious incident". The boyfriend of Peter's mother is jailed for life.
His mother is jailed indefinitely. Owen, the lodger, is given an indeterminate sentence for public protection.
11 August: Tracey Connelly and Steven Barker are named as Baby Peter's mother and stepfather after reporting restrictions are lifted by a judge who says it is a necessary step to maintain public confidence in the judicial system. The decision by Mr Justice Coleridge follows pressure from several major media organisations that argued it was important to identify the pair to ensure those who caused the toddler's death were being properly held to account.
