About this episode

The episode discusses the case of Kathleen Folbigg, who was convicted of killing her children but later had her innocence argued by friends and experts.

Kathleen Folbigg was found guilty of the manslaughter of her first baby 19 day old Caleb as well as the murders of Patrick, Sarah and Laura. She was sentenced to forty years in prison. For almost 20 years Kathleen was considered the most evil mother in Australia. It would take two decades and the dedication of her friends and a team of experts to prove that her babies were not killed, but died from medical and other explainable causes.
