The woman who adopted eight-year-old abuse victim Tony Hudgell has renewed her call for a child cruelty register after one of her son’s torturers was ordered to stay behind bars.
Paula Hudgell said the Parole Board’s decision to stop the automatic release of evil Anthony Smith, 52, “should ring alarm bells” because the abuser almost walked free.
She is also continuing her fight for a register to monitor the monsters who are convicted of hurting children – and protect youngsters from further horrifying abuse.
