I think it's fair to presume innocence until guilt is proven.
Edit: I think I misread one of the articles, apologies
- dhzhzjsbevs 4y agoYea that's probably fair. I dont really think we should be looking to criminalise pregnancy losses. At the same time I think it was a bit of a suspect situation. It's pretty rare to end up with a full term baby dead in the toilet.
- robonerd 4y agoCan you link to one? I can find articles calling it a still birth, which is obviously the contention of those who think she's innocent, but I can't find any articles talking about the cord being wrapped. Also, the initial medical examination of the body said it died of asphyxiation, determined by a "float test" which evidently showed air in the lungs. It seems this conclusion may likely have been erroneous and the float test not scientifically sound, but it seems a bit unlikely they would initially conclude such a thing if the cord were obviously wrapped around the neck.
