flag Experts are demanding a broad review of shaken baby syndrome (SBS) after a podcast investigation raised concerns about its scientific validity, focusing on the case of Jesse Harvey, wrongfully convicted in 2019 for shaking his infant son Casey, who died from a previously undiagnosed congenital heart condition. flag A forensic report found five flaws in the prosecution’s medical evidence, including overlooked heart disease and misinterpreted imaging, contradicting the SBS diagnosis. flag Despite known health issues, including a heart murmur and blood in spinal fluid, the prosecution attributed injuries to shaking. flag Harvey, who maintained innocence and rejected a plea deal, had no expert rebuttal due to limited resources. flag The case fuels growing scrutiny over over 100 SBS convictions since 1995 and calls for a national review to prevent future wrongful convictions.
