The judge was told the period of gross negligence which led to Debbie's death came after a number of months when the young woman suffered terribly. Clarke had sought help for a Norwegian scabies infection - a painful skin condition caused by neglect - but had not attended follow up appointments.

The suffering she must have experienced is readily apparent to anyone who has seen the photographs and read the papers in this case.
