Parents and carers are often falsely accused of injuring a child asserting that unexplained bruises, fractures, retinal and subdural hemorrhages with ischemic encephalopathy, the so called “Triad”, are signs of physical abuse. However these features can be the result of Tissue Scurvy, a disorder of Vitamin C metabolism in which Vitamin C, although abundant in the plasma, is unable to enter the cell because of a lack of Insulin which is necessary to conduct the transfer of the Vitamin C into the cell. The cause is an autoimmune reaction to a viral, bacterial or parasitic infection or a vaccine which destroys the Insulin-producing Beta cells of the Pancreas, as evidenced by Hyperglycaemia and Glycosuria, in some genetically susceptible children. Here it is shown that the evidence of the Prosecution Experts alleging death from the Shaken Baby Syndrome was demonstrably flawed. The diagnosis Shaken Baby Syndrome is false and an innocent man was incarcerated. This irrational diagnosis should beabandoned.
