- Angela Cannings was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment in the UK in 2002 for the murder of her seven-week-old son, Jason, who died in 1991, and of her 18-week-old son Matthew, who died in 1999. Her first child, Gemma, died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in 1989 at the age of 13 weeks, although she was never charged in connection with Gemma's death. Her conviction was based on claims that she had smothered the children, but was overturned as unsafe by the Court of Appeal on 10 December 2003. Cannings was convicted after the involvement in her case of Professor Sir Roy Meadow, a paediatrician who was later struck off, then reinstated, by the General Medical Council. Her defence solicitor was Bill Bache. The Cannings case was re-examined after a BBC "Real Story" investigation showed that her paternal great-grandmother had suffered one sudden infant death and her paternal grandmother two. Professor Michael Patton, a clinical geneticist at St George's Hospital Medical School, told the BBC that a genetic inheritance was the most likely explanation for the crib deaths in the family. (en)
- Angela Cannings is in 2002 in Engeland onterecht veroordeeld voor de moord op haar zeven weken oude zoon, Jason, die in 1991 overleed, en voor de moord op haar 18 weken oude zoon, Matthew, die in 1999 overleed. Haar eerste baby, Gemma overleed ook door wiegendood in 1989, ze was toen 13 weken oud. Desondanks werd Angela nooit vervolgd voor Gemma’s dood. Haar veroordeling (waarvoor ze een levenslange gevangenis kreeg opgelegd) was gebaseerd op de bewering dat Angela haar kinderen had laten stikken, maar werd bij het hoger beroep op 10 december 2003 ongeldig verklaard. Cannings werd veroordeeld na de bemoeienis van Professor Sir Roy Meadow, een controversiële kinderarts. Cannings zaak werd opnieuw onderzocht nadat de BBC een "Real Story" documentaire over het onderwerp had gemaakt. Het onderzoek gaf weer dat in de familie van haar vader eerder meerdere gevallen van wiegendood waren voorgekomen. Professor Michael Patton, een geneticus in St George's Hospital Medical School vertelde de BBC dat een erfelijke genetische afwijking een aannemelijke verklaring was voor de verschillende gevallen van wiegendood in de familie.
