The killer mother of Baby P is now ‘too scared’ to leave her hostel since she was released from prison over the brutal murder of her toddler son, who was tortured to death.
What happened to the mother of Baby P?
Tracey Connelly, now 41, was taken from HM Prison Low Newton in County Durham to start a secret new life in a bail hostel in July last year.
But her return to public life has reportedly been met with confrontation from locals who have recognised the notorious killer, despite Connolly being advised to ‘lose weight and dye her hair’ to stay hidden, according to The Mirror.
How old was Baby P?
Connelly, whose conspicuous weight is at more than 20 stone, has faced the fury of residents and neighbours for her hand in torturing 17-month-old son Peter to death in 2007, in a horrific case that shocked the nation.
How long was Baby P mum in jail?
The recluse, who covered up the abuse of her son, was jailed indefinitely in 2009 for a minimum of five years after admitting causing or allowing his death.
She has also reportedly been met with animosity from her two grown-up daughters, when in a vain attempt she requested to ‘build bridges’ with them last year.
How Baby P mum is going to spend her Christmas
However, the pair who were put into foster care when she was imprisoned for the murder of their toddler brother, refused her wishes to ‘spend Christmas as a family’, meaning she would potentially face the winter festivities alone.
According to the Daily Star, the 41-year-old sent repeated letters and tried to call her daughters who refused all of her offers.
One source said: ‘Tracey was looked after in prison. She was seen as a notorious criminal and looked after, because there were so many people that wanted to do her harm for what she did to that poor baby.
‘But now she is out fending for herself, and no one wants to know’.
