Summary

The true story of an innocent woman convicted of the murder of her three children - her fight for justice and the struggle to return to a normal family life

Cherished Summary

Cherished: A mother's fight to prove her innocence by Angela Cannings

Angela Cannings was charged with murder directly after she and her husband Terry lost their third infant in ten years. She was convicted because of a medical theory that came to be known as ' Meadow's Law', which stated that 'one sudden infant death is a tragedy, two is suspicious and three is murder until proved otherwise.'

Angela spent almost two years in prison and, at one point, found herself beside Rose West. A fellow inmate scarred her with hot coffee. Angela began to lose all hope, but a cellmate, Rose, helped her refocus on what was important - being reunited with her husband and their daughter Jade. In 2004 she was released unconditionally.

Cherished is the remarkable story of a woman who has shown real endurance under extraordinary circumstances.

The scientific jargon is properly explained, and there is an excellent glossary? Scotsman **?I so enjoyed this elegantly written inside story? New Scientist **?[Wilmut] is acutely aware of the controversies of his work and this is his attempt at communicating his side of things to the public ? a responsible step to take and an enjoyable read into the bargain?
