National Review Panel report says ‘tragic deaths of the children’ could not have been predicted by services

“The tragic deaths of the children who are the subjects of this review could not have been predicted by any of the services involved,” says the review completed in December 2021.

Some of these “support people” indicated “a degree of doubt about the evidence of domestic violence” and assigned a “much lower risk rating to the situation” than Tusla did. Another report, completed in March 2020, concerns a 16-year-old boy in care, “Noah”*, who died by suicide. “His parents had a history of poor mental health and substance abuse. His father spent time in prison and died some years before Noah’s death,” the report says.

He missed appointments with the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services and was due to start classes in a local youth project when he died.
