The Buckinghamshire Advertiser reports today that Keran Henderson's appeal is finally under way in a story that runs under the heading: "Jailed Iver childminder launches appeal."
"Keran Henderson, the Iver childminder jailed for the manslaughter of a baby in her care in 2007, begun her bid to have her conviction overturned at the Appeal Court today," the story, by reporter Greg Burns begins;
"Henderson, 43, of Pinewood Green, was jailed in November 2007 after being found guilty of shaking 11 month old Maeve Sheppard to death," the story continues;
"Her defence team argued that Maeve had been ill before she died.
And today (11/3) Henderson's lawyers launched a formal appeal at the Court of Appeal, in central London, claiming that the jury's decision in the case could be questioned because of certain aspects of the medical evidence."
