2 November 1991:
Victoria Adjo Climbie is born near Abidjan, the Ivory Coast.

November 1998:
Seven-year-old Victoria Adjo Climbie leaves Abobo in the Ivory Coast to lives with her aunt,
Marie-Therese Kouao initially in Paris. Kouao takes the girl to London after she is pursued by
French authorities over benefit payments.

April - June 1999:
On arrival in England, Victoria's name is given as Anna because of the assumed identity on the
false passport used to get her into Europe.

Kouao takes a job as a hospital cleaner and the pair initially live in a hostel in north London.
Some weeks later Victoria is on a bus with her aunt when they meet Carl Manning, the driver, for the
first time.

July 1999:
Kouao and Victoria, who speaks no English, move into Carl Manning's home in Tottenham, north
London. Within days, Victoria would be suffering abuse at the hands of Carl Manning. That abuse
would lead to her torture and death.

14 July 1999:

Kouao: Pretended to care for Victoria
Victoria makes her first visit to the Central Middlesex Hospital after the daughter of her
childminder suspects the girl has non-accidental injuries. The doctor accepts Kouao's story
that Victoria has inflicted the wounds on herself by scratching at scabies sores.

During this period, doctors alert child protection authorities as a precaution. Haringey social
worker Lisa Arthurworrey and PC Karen Jones are assigned to the case. They later cancel a home visit
scheduled for 4 August after hearing about the scabies.

24 July 1999:
Victoria is taken to North Middlesex Hospital's casualty department with scalding to her head
and face. Doctors immediately suspect that the injuries have been deliberately inflicted.

Kouao tells Lisa Arthu4worrey and PC Jones that she poured hot water over Victoria to try and stop
her scratching her scalp. She says that Victoria caused other injuries with utensils.

6 August 1999:
Victoria is discharged from the hospital and is collected by Kouao after her explanation for the
injuries is accepted by child protection authorities.

October 1999
Trial evidence reveals that from October 1999 until the following January, Carl Manning forces
Victoria to sleep in a bin liner in the bath every night at this flat.

1 November 1999L:
Kouao tells social workers that Carl Manning has sexually assaulted Victoria. She withdraws the
accusation the next day. PC Jones is asked to investigate why but takes no further action after her
letter to Kouao remains unanswered.

24 February 2000
Victoria is rushed to North Middlesex Hospital suffering from a combination of malnutrition and
hypothermia. Doctors later transfer her to an intensive care ward at St Mary's Hospital in west
London.

25 February 2000:
Victoria is declared dead at 3.15pm at St Mary's Hospital.

Dr Nathaniel Carey, the Home Office pathologist who examines her body, finds 128 separate injuries
and scars, many of them cigarette burns, and describes them as "the worst case of child abuse
I've encountered".

♥ღ♥ My eyes have seen the yellow sand,
my ears have heard their cries.
And I have watched a million hands
reach out to wave good-bye.
I've said good-bye so many times.
I've walked the earth alone,
and I have lived a million lives
just searching for my home.

I'll climb the highest mountain peaks,
I'll ford the deepest streams.
I'll touch you with my memories
and hold you with my dreams.
For love's the greatest miracle
our eyes will ever see.
I'm still alive! I will survive ♥ღ♥ xxx

You make your family very proud
You are a princess of the sky
Lighting star lanterns very high
Heaven calls the special girls and boys
to paint rainbows and make cloud toys
The shapes they form were made by you
and all the other angels called early too

When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.

If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.

If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.

If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.

If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.

So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

They say there are no tears in Heaven,
But that must be wrong today.
Because you took part of my broken heart,
When you went away.
I know my tears must have followed you,
How else can it be?
My Spirit feels so broken,
Beause you’re no longer here with me.
They say someday I will accept your passing,
But, right now that can’t be true,
Because part of me is in Heaven,
My tears..... followed you....
