Infant deaths are every parent’s worst nightmare—and when grief is compounded by wrongful accusation, the result is a lifelong catastrophe. Infant Death Exonerations: The Folbigg Case - A Pratictical Guide for Families, Advocates and Professionals examines how misunderstandings of medical evidence, rare genetic conditions, and entrenched biases can turn tragedy into a criminal conviction. Using the Folbigg case as a central thread, this book explains how infant deaths are investigated, where evidence commonly goes wrong, and what can be done to prevent miscarriages of justice. Written in clear, accessible language, it unpacks complex medical, forensic, and legal issues so that non-specialists can understand the stakes and the science.
Designed as a working resource, this guide offers practical insights for families navigating suspicion, advocates supporting the wrongfully accused, and professionals seeking to improve practice and policy. It highlights warning signs of flawed investigations, points to emerging scientific developments, and outlines constructive reforms that can save families—and systems—from repeating the same mistakes.
