Fiona Anderson, before the suicide
A woman in the United Kingdom died of head injuries after killing her 3 children in an incident which has been described as unavoidable.
23-year-old Fiona Anderson was 8 months pregnant when she jumped off a storey building after drowning her 3 young children in her home.
The lifeless bodies of Levina, 3, Addy, 2, and 11-month-old Kyden were found after their mother’s and it has been revealed that Fiona was suffering from depression after being separated from the children’s father.
The Mirror reports:
The deaths of a heavily pregnant young mum who jumped from a car park and the three children she is believed to have killed could NOT have been prevented, an investigation has found.
Officers found the bodies of Fiona Anderson’s tragic tots, Levina, three, Addy two, and a
son aged 11 months at her flat after she plunged from the top floor of the nearby multi-storey building.
Friends said the 23-year-old had been gripped by depression since splitting from their dad Craig McLelland and the day before the deaths she had posted a chilling message on Facebook warning she might harm them.
One, who did not want to be named, said: “We heard she put a status on her Facebook page last night, saying, ‘My babies will go with me’.
Officers later said they were not looking for anybody else in connection with the incident.
Suffolk Local Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB) has today published its Serious Case Review into how public agencies worked with the Anderson family prior to the deaths.
It found that attempts to engage with the family had failed but there were no warning signs to suggest the children were in immediate danger.
Report author Ron Lock said: “There had been no known history of either the mother or the father intentionally causing physical harm to the children, or of any self-harming episodes by the parents themselves.
“In this respect, the deaths of the children and their mother were completely unexpected. It was not predictable or thought in any way likely.”
