Angela Hassan abused three children in the 70s and 80s including the youngest Steve after they were put into her care by social services.
A man beaten, force-fed and humiliated by his foster carer when he was five is horrified that she escaped a jail sentence.
Steve, now 52, who lives in Luton said: “It was a living hell, I was terrified of her. She was meant to care for us, we maybe needed a little extra care, not punishment. “She’d also use a belt or slipper and the beatings would go on either til she was tired or I fell to the floor. “When I went to court I was handed documents, which were not redacted. That’s when I learned the truth and broke down.“Social services never checked in, it was a phone call and she told them what she wanted them to know. There were failings with social services.
