A Massachusetts court is due to learn later
today the outcome of a review of the medical evidence in the case of an
Irish woman accused of murdering a baby in her care in January 2013. Aisling Brady McCarthy, 36, from Co Cavan is on bail and awaiting trial for the death of one-year-old Rehma Sabir. The Massachusetts medical examiner agreed to undertake a review of
the medical evidence following conflicting expert opinion about the
nature of the baby girl's injuries. A review of this kind is rare. The original medical examination concluded that the baby had died from traumatic head injuries and ruled her death a homicide. However, other evidence showed spinal injuries that occurred weeks earlier when the baby was not in the care of the Irish nanny.........She was released on bail last month and is now subject to home
detention, having spent over two years in custody following her January
2013 arrest.
