:00:07. > :00:10.Police are criticised for missing chances to stop a psychiatric

:00:10. > :00:15.patient killing for a second time. Nicola Edgington made several calls

:00:15. > :00:22.for help before the murder. The footage that shows her running away.

:00:22. > :00:25.The victim's family want answers.Whilst the family are

:00:25. > :00:30.believed that a very dangerous woman has been taken off the

:00:30. > :00:32.streets, they remain concerned at the many questions that remain over

:00:32. > :00:36.the actions of the authorities. We'll be asking why the authorities

:00:36. > :00:42.didn't do more. Also tonight, the Queen leaves hospital. She's

:00:42. > :00:45.expected to spend the next few days resting. High hopes of a win in the

:00:45. > :00:51.battle against HIV. Doctors in America think they have cured a

:00:51. > :01:01.young girl. The Bradford Batman. The caped crusader hands over a

:01:01. > :01:01.

:01:01. > :01:04.suspect to the police. And then On the BBC News Channel, Ryan Giggs

:01:04. > :01:08.will make his 1,000 Ksenia appearance on Manchester United's

:01:08. > :01:18.biggest game of the season against a Real Madrid in the Champions'

:01:18. > :01:27.

:01:27. > :01:30.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. The police watchdog

:01:30. > :01:33.has highlighted a series of missed chances that might have prevented

:01:33. > :01:37.the murder of a grandmother by a psychiatric patient who had already

:01:37. > :01:40.killed her own mother. 32-year-old Nicola Edgington was today given a

:01:40. > :01:46.37-year jail sentence for killing Sally Hodkin in southeast London

:01:46. > :01:49.two years ago. In the hours before the murder, Edgington had made

:01:50. > :01:58.several calls asking the police to help her because she thought she

:01:58. > :02:03.was going to kill someone. June Kelly is at the Old Bailey.George,

:02:03. > :02:08.this is a young woman who, eight years ago, inflicted a terrible

:02:08. > :02:11.tragedy on her own family and then did the same to another family. Two

:02:11. > :02:16.things have happened today. The police watchdog produced its report

:02:16. > :02:20.and also Nicola Edgington was given a life term by a judge at the Old

:02:20. > :02:25.Bailey. This is Nicola Edgington just after she has committed murder

:02:25. > :02:30.on a suburban street. Using a stolen butcher's knife she's also

:02:30. > :02:35.almost decapitated a victim. She runs into a shop after hearing

:02:35. > :02:39.police sirens. A short time later, she is under arrest. Nicola

:02:39. > :02:44.Edgington had killed before, stabbing her mother to death in

:02:44. > :02:48.2005, and was conflicted -- convicted of manslaughter. Six

:02:48. > :02:58.years later, Sally Hodkin became her second victim. She did not know

:02:58. > :03:01.

:03:01. > :03:06.her, it was a random attack. Today, Outside the Old Bailey, the

:03:06. > :03:09.family's lawyer spoke for them. Whilst the family are believed a

:03:09. > :03:13.very dangerous woman has been taken off the streets, they remain

:03:13. > :03:17.concerned at the very many questions that remain over the

:03:17. > :03:22.actions of the authorities. Nicola Edgington was released in

:03:22. > :03:26.psychiatric care in 2009 because she was considered safe. Two years

:03:26. > :03:31.later, in the early hours of the morning, she took a taxi to a

:03:31. > :03:41.hospital in south London. From the hospital, she made a series of 999

:03:41. > :03:50.

:03:50. > :03:54.She was not detained and then left to the hospital and went on a bus

:03:54. > :04:00.for Bexleyheath in south London. She went into Asda and bought a

:04:00. > :04:03.knife, and use it to attack another woman who managed to escape. Nicola

:04:03. > :04:08.Edgington stole a knife from a butcher's shop and a short distance

:04:08. > :04:11.away, murdered Sally Hodkin. Today, both medical staff and the police

:04:11. > :04:16.were attacked by the police watchdog for failing to use their

:04:16. > :04:20.powers to detain her and the police are also criticised for not

:04:20. > :04:23.checking on her history. Both the police and hospital staff are

:04:23. > :04:26.lacking in crucial information about Nicola Edgington which

:04:26. > :04:30.potentially could have changed the way in which she was dealt with at

:04:30. > :04:35.the hospital. This was a young woman who should have had more

:04:35. > :04:38.support according to those who work in the mental health field. It's a

:04:38. > :04:42.worrying indictment of the psychiatric system because if they

:04:42. > :04:46.can't cope with that a relatively few people with mental illness who

:04:47. > :04:51.have such a history of violence, it casts doubt on how they cope with a

:04:51. > :04:55.majority of people who are never ever violent. But, in court, the

:04:55. > :05:00.judge told Nicola Edgington, she had to take responsibility for what

:05:00. > :05:04.she had done. Very different approaches from the trial judge and

:05:04. > :05:07.those who work in the mental health field, and in response to the

:05:07. > :05:12.report by the police watchdog, the police said it's constantly

:05:12. > :05:15.reviewing its procedures. On the health front, the trust involved

:05:15. > :05:20.has already carried out an internal review and it has acknowledged it

:05:20. > :05:24.should be more alive to problems posed by a Nicola Edgington. Two

:05:24. > :05:28.nurses have been sacked. The NHS commissioning Board has announced

:05:28. > :05:33.there is to be an independent investigation into what it called

:05:33. > :05:36.this tragic and harrowing case. Thanks very much. Thank you. The

:05:36. > :05:38.Queen left hospital this afternoon after being treated for symptoms of

:05:38. > :05:46.gastroenteritis. She thanked hospital staff before being driven

:05:46. > :05:48.away from the King Edward VII's Hospital in central London. Our

:05:48. > :05:55.Royal Correspondent, Nicholas Witchell, is outside Buckingham

:05:55. > :05:59.Palace. She looked quite so brightly this afternoon. She did.

:05:59. > :06:04.Looking at her, you want think she is leaving hospital as a newly

:06:04. > :06:09.discharged patient. She looked, for all the world, like the Queen

:06:09. > :06:13.always looks. She looked relaxed and composed after less than 24

:06:13. > :06:17.hours in hospital. She is now at Buckingham Palace, spending the

:06:17. > :06:22.night here with some fairly firm advice from her doctors to rest and

:06:22. > :06:28.take things easy for the next few days. I wonder whether the key to

:06:28. > :06:31.the whole hospital admission doesn't lie in the world -- word

:06:31. > :06:34."Assessment" In a statement yesterday. Doctors will want to be

:06:34. > :06:39.sure what is causing the sickness so it seems logical that there

:06:39. > :06:42.would have been tests and possibly scans, that sort of thing. Once

:06:42. > :06:47.that was complete, and the Queen feeling much better, it was

:06:47. > :06:51.possible for her to leave hospital. Have a hope and expectation is she

:06:51. > :06:56.will be able to resume public engagements, all being well, next

:06:56. > :06:59.week. Thanks very much. In a world- first, doctors in America believe

:06:59. > :07:02.they have effectively cured a girl born with HIV, the virus that can

:07:02. > :07:06.lead to AIDS. Doctors believe the key to the baby's recovery could be

:07:06. > :07:09.the very early treatment she received within hours of being born.

:07:09. > :07:13.The case in Mississippi could have implications for the treatment of

:07:13. > :07:20.babies born with the infection around the world. Our Medical

:07:20. > :07:26.Correspondent Fergus Walsh reports., in three decades of the battle

:07:26. > :07:32.against the human -- HIV virus, victories like this have been rare.

:07:32. > :07:36.It happened in Mississippi. An HIV- positive mother turned up in Labour

:07:36. > :07:40.at hospital and passed on the infection to her baby. Doctors

:07:40. > :07:44.began drug treatment which was meant to continue for life but

:07:44. > :07:49.after 18 months, her mother stopped bringing her for medication. Five

:07:49. > :07:55.months later, doctors expected the worst but tests could find no signs

:07:55. > :08:03.of infection. We believe that perhaps the initiation of very

:08:03. > :08:08.early drug therapy prevented the formation of the viral forms in the

:08:08. > :08:11.T-cells. It sets the stage for the agenda going forward. HIV attacks

:08:11. > :08:13.the immune system targeting cells known as CD4 or T cells inserting

:08:13. > :08:23.its genetic material, hijacking their function and making extra

:08:23. > :08:24.

:08:24. > :08:27.copies of itself. Drug treatment can keep the infection in check but

:08:27. > :08:33.the virus remains hidden in cell reservoirs which is why a cure is

:08:33. > :08:36.not currently thought possible. But here the baby was given combination

:08:36. > :08:43.anti-retroviral therapy within hours of birth. And this apparently

:08:43. > :08:46.prevented the virus taking hold. Although some genetic material

:08:46. > :08:52.remains, it appears unable to replicate or infect and so the

:08:52. > :08:56.child is what's known as functionally cured. In Britain, HIV

:08:56. > :09:00.testing is routine in early pregnancy. Medication for the

:09:00. > :09:04.mother can minimise the risks of HIV being passed on. So this case

:09:04. > :09:09.is unusual. Mother to child transmission is completely

:09:09. > :09:13.preventable if you are diagnosed early enough and give them other

:09:13. > :09:17.treatment. In the rare cases like this, it does occur, however, this

:09:17. > :09:22.is an interesting piece of data because it suggests we may be able

:09:22. > :09:27.to do something in cases where the baby is already infected. There

:09:27. > :09:31.could be something unusual about the girls genetics which makes so

:09:32. > :09:36.resistant to HIV. Full details have yet to be handed to scientists for

:09:36. > :09:40.scrutiny. But it is, the very least, a promising development in the

:09:40. > :09:43.fight against this virus. A There are new questions tonight about the

:09:43. > :09:49.government's flagship programme designed to boost bank lending to

:09:49. > :09:52.small businesses and households. The latest figures, covering the

:09:52. > :09:54.last three months of 2012, show lending was down by nearly �2.5

:09:54. > :10:03.billion compared to the previous quarter. Our Chief Economics

:10:03. > :10:06.Correspondent, Hugh Pym, reports.'it was the Bank of England

:10:06. > :10:11.and the Government's recipe for boosting lending in the economy,

:10:11. > :10:15.the scheme was launched last summer but this business owner says it has

:10:15. > :10:20.not made things easier for her. She wants to develop her cooking

:10:20. > :10:23.business and open a restaurant but so far, banks have turned it down.

:10:23. > :10:28.I don't think the banks are reasonable because I'm creating

:10:28. > :10:33.jobs. I'm creating jobs for the community here, I'm going to create

:10:34. > :10:37.something I'm passionate about and also its expanding the business.

:10:37. > :10:41.While she is passionate about developing a new side, banks are to

:10:41. > :10:45.think hard about where they learn their money. The Bank of England

:10:45. > :10:49.wants to encourage more borrowing. Under the scheme it lends money to

:10:49. > :10:52.banks and building societies, this will be at an extra low interest

:10:52. > :10:56.rate as long as they pass the funding on to companies and

:10:56. > :10:59.households, but if their lending falls, they will have to pay a

:11:00. > :11:02.higher interest paid to the Bank of England. The latest figures show,

:11:02. > :11:06.while banks and building societies took some of the Bank of England

:11:06. > :11:10.money on offer, their lending to businesses and consumers actually

:11:10. > :11:14.fell in the last few months of last year. The government says it may

:11:14. > :11:19.take a while for the money to work through the system. It takes time

:11:19. > :11:23.to build and the comparison is what would have happened without it, and

:11:23. > :11:28.what we saw his interest rates were beginning to rise because it was

:11:28. > :11:31.difficult for banks to get hold of funds and loans were not available.

:11:31. > :11:34.There is evidence from the housing market the scheme as having an

:11:34. > :11:38.impact. Lenders say they have been able to get access to cheap loans

:11:38. > :11:42.at the Bank of England and pass on the benefits to homebuyers.

:11:43. > :11:45.Mortgage rates on many products in recent months have come down. But

:11:45. > :11:49.while it may be helping borrowers in the housing market, officials of

:11:49. > :11:52.the Bank of England admit the scheme is not increasing finance

:11:52. > :11:56.for small businesses and labour argues the latest news is deeply

:11:56. > :11:59.disappointing and the government should be done a lot more to kick-

:11:59. > :12:04.start the economy. HSBC has reported pre-tax profits of nearly

:12:04. > :12:13.�14 billion. That's a fall of 6% and slightly lower than had been

:12:13. > :12:16.predicted. The Bank posted the profits despite paying more than a

:12:16. > :12:18.billion pounds to the US authorities to settle drug money

:12:18. > :12:21.laundering charges in Mexico. Horsemeat has been found in minced

:12:21. > :12:24.beef served in school dinners in Leicestershire. The council, which

:12:24. > :12:27.supplies more than 200 schools across the county, said tests

:12:27. > :12:34.showed the beef contained less than 1% horse DNA. It's been permanently

:12:34. > :12:37.taken off school menus. The Vatican is to investigate the former head

:12:37. > :12:41.of the Catholic church in Scotland, Cardinal Keith O'Brien, who last

:12:41. > :12:44.night admitted sexual misconduct. The scandal comes as Roman Catholic

:12:44. > :12:52.cardinals have started a week of closed-door meetings in Rome before

:12:52. > :13:01.choosing a successor to Pope Benedict. From there Allan Little

:13:01. > :13:07.sent this report. Cardinal O'Brien's admission casts a shadow

:13:07. > :13:11.over the most important decision the Church has to make. The

:13:11. > :13:14.cardinals gather today to stop the process to elect a new Pope. If the

:13:14. > :13:20.allegations against Cardinal O'Brien had not been made public,

:13:20. > :13:24.he would be here among them. The former leader of the Church in

:13:24. > :13:29.England and Wales told me the vast majority of priests honoured their

:13:29. > :13:37.vow of celibacy. The Church's teaching would not change. If it

:13:37. > :13:42.Cardinal O'Brien lived up to the promises he made, that something

:13:43. > :13:52.he's very sorry for. He's apologised. I don't think it takes

:13:52. > :13:56.away from the teaching of the Church and shouldn't do.' Cardinal

:13:56. > :13:59.O'Brien was a vociferous critic of homosexuality, calling gay marriage

:13:59. > :14:06.a grotesque subversion. But last night, he admitted his own sexual

:14:06. > :14:09.conduct had, Times, fallen below what was expected of him. We are

:14:09. > :14:12.sad and the Cardinal can find it in himself to apologise in a statement

:14:12. > :14:18.to gaze Scots on their friends and families, for they had full and

:14:18. > :14:22.vicious language he is used against gay people. At St Mary's Catholic

:14:22. > :14:28.Cathedral in Edinburgh there is a sense of stunned disbelief.

:14:28. > :14:32.shocked. I'm shocked. A very shocked. This has profoundly shaken

:14:32. > :14:36.the Catholic Church in Scotland. Its former leader is accused a

:14:36. > :14:39.staggering hypocrisy. One leading lay Catholic said that it publicly

:14:40. > :14:43.preached against homosexuality while privately known many of its

:14:43. > :14:47.priests were again. A prominent historian said it was the worst

:14:47. > :14:54.crisis since the Reformation and the shockwaves are felt right here

:14:54. > :14:57.in Rome. This morning, the cardinal's prayed for divine

:14:57. > :15:02.guidance and swore an oath to keep their proceedings secret. The

:15:02. > :15:05.Italians among them are said to want a swift transition. But others

:15:05. > :15:15.from the developing world want a Pope who will reform the Italian

:15:15. > :15:18.

:15:18. > :15:26.dominated Vatican. The battle lines Our Religious Affairs Correspondent,

:15:26. > :15:33.Robert Pigott, is in Edinburgh for us tonight. What is the reaction to

:15:33. > :15:38.these latest developments? George, the loyalty of congregation's

:15:38. > :15:41.including here at St Mary's Cathedral has been remarkable. But

:15:41. > :15:46.during the day people have been comparing his frequent

:15:46. > :15:49.announcements about homosexual behaviour, with his admission of

:15:49. > :15:55.homosexual conduct and coming to the conclusion he has been

:15:55. > :16:00.hypocritical. And the man appointed by the Pope as the caretaker in

:16:00. > :16:04.this diocese, will say publicly in a mass, the most ringing criticism

:16:04. > :16:10.of the Church has been one of hypocrisy. He will say it has been

:16:10. > :16:15.made with some reason. So a big admission by the man appointed to

:16:15. > :16:19.care take this diocese that there is concern for the Church. He will

:16:19. > :16:26.go on to say it is transit tree. But what the Church will be his it

:16:26. > :16:30.will suck the the same loss of moral ability Ireland did and in

:16:30. > :16:34.the United States. These are unstable times, and the trouble for

:16:34. > :16:41.the Church is, although Cardinal O'Brien was popular, he will take

:16:41. > :16:46.that with him. The Church will fit it will bequeath to it the sense of

:16:46. > :16:50.hypocrisy and double standards he seems to be admitting to.

:16:50. > :16:53.Our top story tonight: The psychiatric patient who went on to

:16:53. > :17:03.kill for a second time - police are criticised for missing chances to

:17:03. > :17:07.stop her. Coming up: Each of these pieces of

:17:07. > :17:11.I've retells the story of a slaughter of elephants in Africa.

:17:11. > :17:21.I will be reporting on the latest efforts to combat the illegal trade

:17:21. > :17:33.

:17:33. > :17:36.How do you turn around the lives of England's most troubled families?

:17:36. > :17:38.Government figures show that about 120,000 families are responsible

:17:38. > :17:43.for much of the anti-social behaviour that blights so many

:17:43. > :17:47.communities. The Government says a scheme to help those families is

:17:47. > :17:56.just beginning show results. Mike Sergeant has been with a family in

:17:56. > :18:01.Burnley. Troubled families can suck in the

:18:01. > :18:06.resources of a town like Burnley. Costing money from the police,

:18:06. > :18:12.doctors and social workers. There are 375 families on the list with

:18:12. > :18:16.problems such as truancy and anti- social behaviour. 12 months ago,

:18:16. > :18:23.and local resident, Jayne and her son needed help. She was struggling

:18:23. > :18:27.to cope as his behaviour spiralled out of control. There was holes in

:18:27. > :18:31.doors, nine has been thrown, cups being thrown at your head if you

:18:31. > :18:37.said anything wrong to him. People knocking at the door, your son has

:18:37. > :18:42.done this, your son has done that. But with support, life is back on

:18:42. > :18:51.track. Jordan got the help he needed and now wants to train to be

:18:51. > :18:56.a chef. I am 110% confidence. 12 months ago I did not see a way out.

:18:56. > :19:02.Be each success story suggests it is possible to improve the lives of

:19:02. > :19:06.some of these people, at least for a while. The question is whether

:19:06. > :19:13.targeted information can -- intervention can make a permanent

:19:13. > :19:17.change. Each family gets money from the Government if it can get a

:19:17. > :19:22.family of the list. Nichola Parker has been working with some of the

:19:22. > :19:27.most challenging cases. We can turn their lives around. We have a

:19:27. > :19:31.number of success stories. We have had good improvement in attendance

:19:31. > :19:36.at school. We have children with aspirations now. If families refuse

:19:36. > :19:41.help, the threat of punishment is not far away. Critics say that is

:19:41. > :19:46.the problem with Government's attempts to help the issue, seeking

:19:46. > :19:52.to penalise families without tackling ill-health, and bad

:19:52. > :19:59.education. Many intervention come with the threat of sanction, and

:19:59. > :20:02.that is not a stable foundation to build long-term change. Jayne and

:20:02. > :20:06.Jordan benefited from a belief they could be saved from a dysfunctional

:20:06. > :20:12.existence. The question is, how many other troubled families can

:20:12. > :20:14.make a permanent change to Police in Northern Ireland believe

:20:14. > :20:18.they've foiled an attempted bomb attack by dissident republicans

:20:18. > :20:21.after discovering four live mortar bombs in Londonderry. Three men

:20:21. > :20:31.were arrested after the devices were found in a van. Chris Buckler

:20:31. > :20:36.is in Londonderry for us. Those mortar bombs were driven into the

:20:36. > :20:40.city, coming close to the houses behind me. A heavily populated area.

:20:40. > :20:44.Rhodes had been closed and people have not been able to get to their

:20:44. > :20:48.houses. But it is not the disruption concerning people, it is

:20:48. > :20:52.the potential for death and destruction. Inside this ban,

:20:52. > :20:56.mortar bombs were primed and ready to be used. They were stopped by

:20:56. > :21:01.the police just minutes away from Derry City centre. Officers have

:21:01. > :21:05.spent the day examining the weapons. The mortar tubes were in the back

:22:17. > :22:21.but beyond that, while mortar bombs had been used in Northern Ireland

:22:54. > :22:56.wildlife. From Bangkok our Science Editor, David Shukman, reports.

:22:56. > :22:59.Behind the scenes at Bangkok airport, the cargo terminal is a

:22:59. > :23:01.hive of activity. For many years this hall was a notorious as an

:23:01. > :23:06.easy route smuggling, drugs and something that has become almost as

:23:06. > :23:10.valuable - the body parts of endangered animals. Customs

:23:10. > :23:18.officers show of one of the most recent calls. This ivory from Kenya

:23:18. > :23:22.was intercepted on its way to China. The authorities say Segers like

:23:22. > :23:29.these prove how they are clamping down on this gruesome and illegal

:23:29. > :23:34.trade. -- seizures. This is just part of one load, but it involved

:23:34. > :23:40.the slaughter of 79 elephants. Demand for ivory is from China,

:23:40. > :23:44.where it is seen as bringing good fortune and prices keep going up.

:23:44. > :23:51.This weighs just over three kilograms and can be sold for about

:23:51. > :23:56.�4,000, about $6,000. Double and treble that in China. The trade

:23:56. > :24:01.begins with a trail of blood in the African bush, 25,000 albums were

:24:01. > :24:06.killed in 2011, almost certainly more last year. -- elephants. To

:25:22. > :25:24.perpetrators to justice over here. A man dressed as the caped crusader,

:25:24. > :25:27.walked into a Bradford police station and handed over a wanted

:25:27. > :25:37.man who he'd detained after making a citizen's arrest. Danny Savage

:25:37. > :25:38.

:25:38. > :25:42.It sounds like the most exciting thing ever to happen at this police

:25:42. > :25:48.station in Bradford, but when that man brought in a suspect, the

:25:48. > :25:52.reality was a bit more sedate. Leaning against the front desk for

:25:52. > :25:57.an officer, the caped Crusader chatted to the man he is handing

:25:57. > :26:01.over, who has been charged with handling stolen goods and fraud.

:26:01. > :26:06.But the identity of the man in the costume remains a mystery. Although,

:26:06. > :26:11.as he would expect from a man of his pedigree, he disappeared into

:26:11. > :26:16.the night. Across town, someone believes they have met the man

:26:17. > :26:24.behind the mask. Do you think you have solved -- sold the costume to

:26:24. > :26:30.the man? I believe I did. How do you know? He was very specific. He

:26:30. > :26:35.wanted a grey outfit. Anything more you can tell us? I believe he lives

:26:35. > :26:41.on let the avenues. Do you feel safer knowing that man is on the

:26:41. > :26:46.streets of Bradford? Are caused, he is looking after us if he is not in

:26:46. > :26:53.the police station. It is nice someone is out there wanting to do

:26:53. > :26:57.good. But to dress up, you can attract the wrong attention. This

:26:57. > :27:02.impersonator was attracting attention today, turning heads. But

:27:02. > :27:11.the question remains - who is the Bradford Batman?

:27:12. > :27:17.Let's take a look at the weather It has been beautiful. But we are

:27:18. > :27:22.going to see some boggy patches overnight. It will turn fine and

:27:22. > :27:27.sunny again tomorrow. Increasing amounts of Sunshine spreading

:27:27. > :27:32.across the near Continent. It was cold and grey across parts of north

:27:33. > :27:38.east England. Most of us having a fine end to the day. Temperatures

:27:38. > :27:42.falling away quickly already. A widespread frost. Those areas of

:27:42. > :27:50.fog developing, but Italy across parts of central and eastern

:27:50. > :27:55.England. Out of the Times Centre, below freezing. Let's concentrate

:27:55. > :28:00.on the fog. The Vale of York, Trent Valley into East Anglia, nasty

:28:00. > :28:07.patches for the early morning commute. Freezing fog as well. You

:28:07. > :28:12.could run into nasty patches as you drive to work. Check out your BBC

:28:12. > :28:17.local radio station. The fog will clear and for many of us it is set

:28:17. > :28:23.to beat a stunning day. Pleasantly warm, up into the mid-teens in a

:28:23. > :28:29.few places. The fog should lift by late morning. There will still be

:28:29. > :28:38.one or two areas of low cloud in areas of north-east England. Parts

:28:38. > :28:44.of western Scotland keeping cloud. Temperatures recovering nicely.

:28:44. > :28:49.Some places could get as high as 15 degrees. Enjoy it, it is not going
