I think you'll find they do
Do they?
“As part of our investigations we were able to access their home where we found a CCTV camera set up in their living room. And the footage from that helped us build up a picture of the grim reality of Arthur’s life inside that house.”
What evidence do you have for that?
Children's care proceedings go through the civil court which mean they only have to establish facts on the balance of probability not beyond reasonable doubt as they would in criminal proceedings.
It would also be against their duty of care to prevent the child coming to harm if they just waited for more abuse instead of stepping in.
Unless there was other criminal behaviour like drug dealing or cuckoo-ing the police wouldn't be running surveillance.
