Guilty until Proven Innocent
Mar 02, 2017
Gresham College
The issue of Shaken Baby or Natural Cause will be examined. https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/guilty-until-proven-innocent

A case study involving a bereaved parent, the transformation of a family home into a crime scene, with the pregnant mother facing a murder trial and her baby removed at birth. Exoneration and reunification, despite a jury acquittal, did not happen until the Family Court's decision. The lecture will explore how such a decision was arrived at and the impact it has had on our understanding of Non Accidental Injury (NAI) versus undiagnosed rickets and Vitamin D deficiency that can mimic gross abuse.

The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/guilty-until-proven-innocent
