Australia’s worst female killer ‘is innocent’

Folbigg, 53, was jailed for 30 years in 2003 for the murders of her children Patrick, Sarah and Laura – aged from eight months to 19 months – between 1991 and 1999.

She was also found guilty of the manslaughter of her firstborn child, Caleb, who was just 19 days old when he died in Newcastle in 1989.

However, a total of 76 eminent researchers, including two Nobel laureates and several Australians of the Year, say new medical evidence about a mutant gene carried by two of the Folbigg children ­creates a “strong presumption’’ they died from natural causes. An additional 14 inter­national experts have joined the call for action.
