A homo***ual foster couple were left free to ***ually abuse vulnerable
boys
in their care because social workers feared being accused of
discrimination
if they investigated complaints, an inquiry concluded yesterday.
Craig Faunch and Ian Wathey were one of the first homo***ual couples in
the
country to be officially approved as foster parents.
They looked after 18 children in only 15 months.
With no previous convictions, they came across as respectable men who
simply
wanted to help boys with a variety of problems.
In reality, they were paedophiles, who repeatedly abused the children in
their care.
Even when the mother of two of the children re****ted her suspicions to the
council, officials accepted the men's explanations and did nothing.
Instead of banning children from staying with Faunch and Wathey, they sent
youngsters with more serious problems to them. Between them, the couple
abused four boys aged between eight and 14.
In a scathing re****t published yesterday, Wakefield Metropolitan District
Council was condemned for treating the men as "trophy carers".
The children's charity Kidscape said those in charge of overseeing the
safety of children in the care of Faunch and Wathey had allowed political
correctness to override common sense.
