GIST: "Ipser said the U.S. government publishes an index that explains how much force to the head causes head injuries. Based on that index, he said, he was able to calculate that someone shaking Maria would have had to exert as much as 1,500 pounds of force on her to cause such injuries just by shaking her. But that's more force than a human can muster, he said. "You can't do it." Besides, Ipser added, "That force would severely damage the neck." But Maria did not have severe neck injuries. That means Maria did not die from shaking alone, he said. "In my opinion, within a reasonable degree of scientific probability, it's just not possible in general that shaking without blunt impact on a hard surface would be sufficient to cause … this internal evidence of damage," he said."
