Description: Today, Hunter is joined by Dr. Julie Mack and Randy Papetti to discuss Shaken Baby Syndrome. Also known as Abusive Head Trauma, Shaken Baby Syndrome started out as an untested hypothesis meant to help parents keep their children safe. However, police and prosecutors quickly realized the power SBS had to secure convictions. Since then, dozens of people's convictions have been overturned as courts around the country realize that SBS is an unfounded, junk science that does not belong in the criminal court room.   Guests: Dr. Julie Mack, Radiologist Randy Papetti, Attorney   Resources: CATO Institute on Shaken Baby Syndrome https://www.cato.org/events/shaken-baby-syndrome-examining-evidence-shadow-execution Randy's Book on Shaken Baby Syndrome https://www.amazon.com/Forensic-Unreliability-Shaken-Baby-Syndrome/dp/0998904333 Feigned Consensus: Usurping the Law in Shaken Baby Syndrome/ Abusive Head Trauma Prosecutions https://repository.law.umich.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3104&context=articles Swedish Study on SBS https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28130787/ Robert Roberson https://www.themarshallproject.org/2023/09/15/texas-shaken-baby-syndrome-baby-death-robert-roberson?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAl4a6BhBqEiwAqvrquptUxczfL4EwGv2aXhKkzhV8LiaHBriGbcdDzCJtXwd7ypeophvb0xoCCckQAvD_BwE https://www.texastribune.org/2024/10/29/robert-roberson-shaken-baby-texas-death-row-evidence/     Contact Hunter Parnell:                                 Publicdefenseless@gmail.com  Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter                                                                 @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com  Subscribe to the Patron www.patreon.com/PublicDefenselessPodcast  Donate on PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=5KW7WMJWEXTAJ Donate on Stripe https://donate.stripe.com/7sI01tb2v3dwaM8cMN Trying to find a specific part of an episode?
