The murder of a teenage girl by her brother could not have been predicted by professionals involved in their care, a report has said.
South Lanarkshire's child protection committee has now published an independent review into the case.Amber was living in a children's home and her brother had been staying at a homeless hostel at the time of the murder. Another man, Stephen Corrigan, was jailed for interfering with Amber's body after finding her remains in the park.
After Connor Gibson was found guilty of murder, Mr and Mrs Niven described Amber as the "most giving, caring, loving, supportive and admirable person".The independent learning review said that all the professionals who worked with Amber and her brother had their health and wellbeing "at the core of their work".It said they worked hard to engage with both siblings when they were worried about their safety.
However, there was "no evidence" that alternative accommodation was looked for and they both continued to live in the same care placement.The report also highlighted that there was no recognised framework to bring agencies together to assess and manage young people who may be displaying harmful sexual behaviour.
