This week, in a Sydney courtroom, Australia’s worst female serial killer edged closer to freedom. For the last 20 years, Kathleen Folbigg has been languishing in prison for taking the lives of her four babies, Caleb, Patrick, Sarah and Laura. However, startling new scientific evidence could prove she’s not a villain but a victim who has been locked up for nothing.
In an extended program, we revisit 60 MINUTES’ 2021 story which revealed a group of 90 of the world’s most respected scientists, medical practitioners and academics had determined that an enormous miscarriage of justice had occurred in this case. The group, which included two Nobel Laureates, is backing some extraordinary research, headed by a professor of immunology at the Australian National University, that has put the murders under the microscope and identified a rare genetic mutation inherited by two of the babies. The experts say it’s breakthrough evidence that almost certainly explains the cause of the babies’ deaths. It's a stunning twist in this tragic story, but is it enough to overturn the findings of multiple court cases and judicial inquiries, and set Kathleen Folbigg free?
