After her second son died in a similar manner, she was arrested in 1998 and tried for the murder of both infants. The convictions were upheld at appeal in October 2000.〔(First appeal ), ''R. v Clark'', () EWCA Crim 54, 2 October 2000, from BAILII.〕 Marilyn Stowe volunteered her involvement in the case, providing her services free of charge because she felt that "something was not right".〔(Second appeal ), ''R. v Clark'', () EWCA Crim 1020, 11 April 2003, from BAILII.〕 The prosecution's pathologist, Alan Williams, was found guilty of "serious professional misconduct" by the General Medical Council.〔("Pathologist in Sally Clark case suspended from court work" ) British Medical Journal 2005;330:1347, 11 June 2005.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marilyn Stowe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
