In a harrowing case that shocked the community of Erith, a mother has been sentenced to 20 months in prison for attempting to conceal a devastating XL Bully attack on her daughter’s 10-year-old friend. Danielle Roberts, 42, was found guilty of perverting the course of justice and being in charge of a dangerously out-of-control dog that caused injury.
The distressing incident unfolded on April 1 last year when the victim went to Roberts’ residence on Byron Drive, Erith, for a playdate. Tragically, the afternoon turned into a nightmare when Roberts’ boyfriend’s XL Bully, named Charlie, launched a ferocious attack on the young girl, inflicting severe injuries.
