Parents' victim statement edited to spare feelings of driver who killed child
MP calls for law change after full statement could not be read out because it could upset driver
An MP has called for a change in judicial rules after the parents of a four-year-old girl killed by a speeding driver had their victim impact statement edited because it would upset the driver during his sentencing.
Glenn and Rebecca Youens’ daughter, Violet-Grace, was with her grandmother when Aidan McAteer mounted the pavement in a stolen car. He had been travelling at 83mph in a 30mph zone. Violet-Grace suffered catastrophic injuries and died in hospital.
It has now emerged that during his sentencing earlier this year McAteer won the right to have parts of the family’s statement redacted.
McAteer, who was driving the high-powered Ford which went through two red lights before careering out of control, fled the scene of the crash, leaving his two victims lying in the road. He was jailed for nine years and four months.
