STORY: "SBS - Shaken baby syndrome. Politics and 'religion' vs. new science," by Phil Locke, posted on the Wrongful Convictions Blog on November 16, 2012.
GIST: "So there you have it. Old theories die hard. But in the mean time, I
continue to be dismayed by the number of innocent people in prison for
inflicting what’s now called “abusive head trauma” on their babies when
they actually did nothing at all, and whom I know are absolutely
innocent. Science will ultimately prevail, but it will first have to
work its way past the politics and religion."

The
Toronto Star, my previous employer for more than twenty
incredible years, has put considerable effort into exposing the
harm caused by Dr. Charles Smith and his protectors - and into
pushing for reform of Ontario's forensic pediatric pathology
system. The Star has a "topic" section which focuses on recent
stories related to Dr. Charles Smith. It can be found at:
