Derbyshire Police said no charges would be brought against Philpott in relation to the allegations due to “insufficient evidence”. In a statement, the force said: “Derbyshire Constabulary is not currently investigating any allegations against Michael Philpott. “The allegations were reviewed and there was insufficient evidence for further action.” The allegations came to light during the investigation into the fatal house fire at Philpott’s home in Derby, which killed six of his children. Jade Philpott, 10, and her brothers John, 9, Jack, 8, Jesse, 6, Jayden, 5, and Duwayne, 13, all died in the blaze in May 2012. Philpott was jailed for life at Nottingham Crown Court in April after being convicted of their manslaughter. His wife, Mairead Philpott, was also convicted of manslaughter along with their friend, Paul Mosley.
