Karla Walker, 32, whose three sons, aged 11, 12 and 13, made life a misery for neighbours on the Polefield Estate in Prestwich for four years, admits they are 'no angels', but said she hasn't had the support she needs to curb their behaviour.

The brothers, who were described as ‘wild’ and ‘out of control’, first started causing trouble aged just seven, eight and nine. Neighbours collected a dossier of evidence about their behaviour since 2008, and the family have now been kicked out of their home.
