Sally Clark dies at family home.Mrs Clark, 42, was jailed in 1999 for killing her 11-week-old son Christopher in December 1996 and eight-week-old Harry in January 1998. A first appeal against the convictions failed in 2000 but she was freed in 2003 after a fresh appeal. ______ Was just watching the news half way through the report. Gave me a big shock and a jolt tbh; awful miscarriage of justice that has led to this. RIP.

RIP.
Tis terrible, this happens so often though... ...We were talking about one in Law today where 3 blokes got sent down for a murder they didn't commit, they served 20yrs, they got under £500k compensation each (pitiful for the amount of their lifes wasted) ...and then to rub it in further, they were ordered to pay 25% back to cover the cost of their 'stay' in prison; piss-take or what.
Also seen a film on the guildford 4(?) which is even worse.

The justice system just doesn't work; causing death by dangerous driving gets on average, what 6yrs? It's pitiful. One small consolation perhaps is that her wrongful conviction helped other mum's be proved innocent.

it makes me angry that people who commit atrocious criminal acts can either get out of it or get a piss-poor sentence because they entered a plea-bargain or they grassed up someone who was goading them on or this is the best excuse.....the prisons are full.......BULLSHIT!!!
so to accomadate them they release countless serial offenders, people who were in there for assualt and GBH!!
why dont they let out the people who havnt actually hurt anyone...like parent who let their children skive, people in for fraud, benefit cheats
sod sending them to jail...make the fraudsters pay it all backwith interest
back onto the topic how did sally clark die?? it doesnt say anywhere
RIP

Hope you are satisfied Prof Roy Meadows. The poor girls' life is torn apart by not one,but two tragic deaths to her children. Then your so called expertise puts her in jail for three years. Now she is with her beloved children again you wanker.

If it wasn't enough of a tragedy already to lose two children, to be convicted of murdering them as well is a disgrace. I imagine she passed away from the stress of it all making her age prematurely of that's possible?
