For Sally


Because mourning the death of one baby son is hell. Mourning the death of two must be agonising beyond description. And then, to be convicted of killing them on the grounds of one quack physician's mad, misguided, invented concept... that has to be the most difficult thing in the world for a mother to endure. I cried for her when she was alive, and I hope she's found peace now. And I hope against hope that we never do that to a person again.

Sally Clark 1965 - 2007

You know, i pride myself on my ability to see things from another shoes, but words and ability fail me over what this woman has gone through.

I too hope she has peace - and her children - now.

Hi,

That was a very moving tribute to Sally Clark. It is such sad news.
We live in sad times but she was strong in the face of injustice and
we can learn lessons from her actions. As a lawyer she knew the
score - it wasn't her place to prove her innocence - it was up to the
Judges and Jury to prove her guilt with the weight of dodgy evidence.

Have you seen this SUSPICIOUS "tribute"?

Omg...I missed that news. Thank you for that tribute, Gill. I couldn't have hoped to have heard such terrible news in a better way.

That is unbelievably sad.

Hi,

This is an open letter to Prof Hamblin who has blocked replies at his blog.

Professor Hamblin,

Your erroneous original thoughts still stand here. Yes, the Internet is a big place, but not for an 8-year old grieving boy whose name is on your blog.

I actually have more respect for Roy Meadows who has maintained a respectful silence (who carried out his job to the best of his ability, armed with the technology at the time) than I have for you, a person armed with hindsight who says:

“Perhaps Clark was possessed by guilt that she really had killed her kids.”

One of her babies died of a staph infection. How do you justify this argument, which you posted 24 hours after her death? How can she kill her baby by staph? You and I are both armed with hindsight.

One of these “kids” is an 8-year-old boy who is likely to be reading your message.

You also say: "Sally Clark has died in suspicious circumstances."

As a medical professional, how can you suggest these are the circumstances 48 hours before a post mortem?

OK, I accept this is doctor’s jargon for “sudden death” but to the layperson (including an 8-year old boy) this means foul play or murder. How would you explain that supposition to the other occupant of her house when he reads this message at your blog?

If I were you and I chose to leave the original post here indefinitely, I would be looking to compensating this little boy in monetary terms. I think you should admit your error by sending this boy (the deceased's son) a cheque for an amount no less than £100,000 as compensation in the event he reads these inaccurate and malicious slurs against his late mother.

Regards,
Coral

With hindsight, this eminent Professor, Terry Hamblin, posted this message into his blog
.
http://mutated-unmuated.blogspot.com/
.
24 hours after Sally Clark’s death. He deleted it, then reposted the same message, plus a few irrelevant paragraphs, 48 hours after her death. He then deleted it for good, but there was a Google cached copy, which has also been deleted. A permanent snapshot copy can be viewed here:

It is now on record that the deliberately erroneous, arrogant opinions of Professor Terry Hamblin may have marred potential referrals to him, which could be considered to be unsafe and not in the public interest in the event of his being called upon as an expert in his field.

This is the original Google captured page, which has been deleted.
