In Part 2 of this series, we continue our conversation with Katherine Judson, the Executive Director of the Center for Integrity in Forensic Sciences. In this episode we will explore how similar symptoms to SBS/AHT can sometimes be overlooked or dismissed, further leading to misdiagnosis and how forensic and medical experts' biases or assumptions influence the outcomes of these cases. We'll also discuss the emotional toll SBS/AHT cases have on clients and their attorneys, the importance of collaborative efforts between medical and legal communities, and the need for ongoing research and updated scientific standards to prevent parents and caretakers from being wrongfully convicted based on this diagnosis.
