The case against a Victorian mother accused of suffocating four of her children has been withdrawn by the prosecution this morning in the Supreme Court...
In court this morning, Justice John Coldrey gave his perspective on why the case had collapsed.
"A detailed examination of the prosecution case revealed, in my view, elementary difficulties... and (in relation to) the quality of the evidence the Crown was seeking to lead"...
The trial ruling followed a month-long committal hearing dominated by conflicting medical opinions on the cause of her children's deaths.
