This couple was wrongly accused of child abuse, The baby was bleeding from the mouth. Doctors also found bruising on the baby's body and "healing fractures" on an X-ray and feared that it had been abused. the baby suffered from a blood disorder called Von Willebrands II. The disorder causes a person to bruise easily. The child was also suffering from a vitamin D deficiency and infantile rickets. After contesting the defence expert evidence, the prosecution engaged an independent radiologist, who concluded he doubted there were any fractures.
That led prosecutors to offer no evidence and not guilty verdicts to be entered.
The couple, from Guildford, Surrey, had been allowed supervised contact with the child when in care until the youngster was adopted last year. The couple's barrister, Michael Turner QC, said: "These innocent parents have been spared a criminal conviction and a prison sentence for a crime they never committed.
"Their life sentence is that they are likely never to see their baby again."
