Overview

An eight-month-old baby is fatally injured while in the care of a family's au pair, Louise Woodward. Was it child abuse or a tragic accident? Doctors suspect the former, a case of 'shaken impact syndrome,' and detectives arrest the infant's 19-year-old British nanny who cared for him in the hours and minutes before his demise. But, was the baby's death a case of intentional murder or a tragic accident that occurred under Woodward's watch?
