The Tragedy Of A Mother



Sally Clark aged 42 died Thursday night her family have announced. To those in other countries, you will not know who Sally Clark is? To those in this country, do you remember?

Sally Clark was a solicitor who was found guilty of murder, not just any murder but that of her two baby boys. The conviction was squashed and the Paediatricain who gave evidence has since become his own victim because his evidence does not have any! Other cases have been quashed, another mother convicted of murdering two of her children, Angela Cannings, also walked free after this Paediatrician's evidence was found to be unsafe.

So we go back to Sally Clark. She'd been released from Prison in 2003 back to her husband and remaining baby boy. It seems Sally never got over the death of her babies and it is too soon to say how she died. The coroner will give his reasons, but Sally had no major illnesses but was not well if that makes sense. The rumours are of an alcoholic who binge drank.

Whaever the rumours I hope she is at peace now. This case opened up so many other cases and many other parents were released from prison because of it. Some people are still in prison and obviously sometimes parents do commit terrible acts and those have to serve their time (Forever in my view).






As I said.....Hope she is at peace.
