Tragically, he died a few days later, but instead of accepting what she’d said, police were convinced it was murder; that Louise, in a fit of rage, had caused catastrophic injuries to Matthew by violently shaking him. What followed was an astonishing trial, the outcome of which remains as disputed today as it was 25 years ago. So you decide - is Louise Woodward a killer nanny or the victim of flawed justice?

This true crime documentary examines the shocking case of British au pair Louise Woodward, who was accused of the murder of 8-month-old Matthew Eappen in America in 1997. The trial swiftly became a global media spectacle, televised live and igniting fierce public debate across continents. We follow the legal and medical battle, which centered on the controversial diagnosis of Shaken Baby Syndrome.
