Social services dismissed two sisters as "troublesome teenagers" when they were told of sexual abuse at the hands of their mother and stepfather, and returned them repeatedly to their care, a court has heard.
The two defendants, both in their 70s, are accused of repeatedly raping the older girl between 1975 and 1981, while the male defendant is accused of sexually assaulting her sister when social workers in West Sussex failed to intervene.
