A string of missed chances to help torture murder victim Jimmy Prout have been highlighted in a report published today.
The 43-year-old was subjected to a campaign of horrific violence at the hands of killers Zahid Zaman and Ann Corbett, before he was eventually killed, in 2016.
Zaman and Corbett were both jailed for life for murdering Jimmy at the home they all shared, in Percy Main, near North Shields.
