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".
After They Are Gone
When someone we love passes away,
We ache, but we go on;
Our dear departed would want us to heal,
After they are gone.
Grief is a normal way to mend
The anguish and pain in our hearts;
We need time to remember and time to mourn,
Before the recovery starts.
Let's draw together to recuperate,
As we go throught this period of sorrow;
Let's help each other, with tender care
To find a brighter tomorrow.

Sending you a great big hug

Simply put ...I really miss you
I've continued to ask why
Life took this dreadful wrong turn...
Now I often sit and cry
Simply put ...my heart is broken
Most people have no clue
Unless they live this heartache...
They don't know what I've lived through
Simply put... I long to hug you
Share a gentle warm embrace
Often spend each day just wishing....
This truth could somehow be erased
Simply put... I can't remember...
The last time I heard your voice
Memories are often painful...
I was not given any choice
Simply put... I know I'm grieving
Won't get better through the years
I have learned some coping methods...
To accept this new frontier
Simply put... I'm good at masking
Denying what I feel
For I know deep down inside me...
I will never truly heal
Simply put...I really miss you
No one knows the pain I bear
Simply put... there is no reason
Losing you was just not fair
Create an ever lasting memorial for your loved ones.
