This story really wound me up that started looking for the feedback page to write a comment, what a crock of #$@% !!
The comment that got to me is:
"Cherishsiliala Tahuri-Wright, 3, known as Cherish, suffered severe head injuries at a house in Marton on February 17, police allege. A 56-year-old woman, charged with her murder, is in custody.
Although emergency services were alerted about 12.15pm, the critically hurt toddler did not arrive at Palmerston North Hospital till 2.40pm.
"It really p$#@# me off to think they d!cked around for a couple of hours while a little girl was dying," said family spokeswoman and Porirua Deputy Mayor Litea Ah Hoi.
"You don't have to be Einstein to work out a child with head injuries has to go straight to hospital any parent would know that instinctively."
After emergency services and police were alerted to Cherish's injuries, it is understood that an ambulance was sent from Feilding, about 25 minutes' drive away."

Now regardless from where the ambulance was sent from this little girl died because SOMEONE who was supposed to be looking after her KILLED her, and as for "family spokeswoman and Porirua Deputy Mayor Litea Ah Hoi" she should know better than start pointing fingers elsewhere.
All these excuses but not enough support for these poor wee kids that have lost their lives
