#327 - For years, prosecutors across the United States relied on a diagnosis known as Shaken Baby Syndrome to explain the sudden deaths of infants and toddlers. In many cases, that diagnosis became the foundation for criminal convictions. But over time, some doctors and forensic experts began questioning the science behind it. In 2002, a two-year-old girl in Texas died after being rushed to the hospital. Her father was later accused of shaking her to death and was ultimately sentenced to death. More than twenty years later, his case has become part of a growing debate over whether some convictions may have relied on flawed or misunderstood evidence.
