Trupti Patel lost three babies to sudden infant death. Then she was accused of murdering them. In 2003, this British pharmacist stood trial at Reading Crown Court, her fate resting on testimony from Professor Sir Roy Meadow - the same expert whose flawed evidence had helped convict Sally Clark. But when Trupti's 80-year-old grandmother travelled from India to testify about five infant deaths in her own family, the case began to unravel. This episode examines the dangerous theory known as Meadow's Law, the systematic failures in investigating sudden infant deaths, and how one trial helped expose a pattern of wrongful accusations against grieving mothers…
