She was wrongfully jailed for 20 years over the deaths of her four young children
Australia’s state of New South Wales has offered compensation of A$2 million (US$1.31 million) to a woman wrongfully jailed for two decades over the deaths of her four young children, but her lawyer dismissed the figure as “unfair and unjust”.
Kathleen Folbigg, 58, was convicted in 2003 of murdering three of her children, and of manslaughter in the death of the fourth.
She was later pardoned, freed and had her convictions quashed in 2023, after an independent inquiry found new scientific evidence that the children could have died from natural causes or a genetic mutation.
