How It Really Happened

S02E06 The Strange Case of the Killer Nanny

An eight-month-old infant suffers fatal injuries while under the supervision of his family's au pair, Louise Woodward. The question arises: was it a case of child abuse or merely a tragic accident? Medical professionals lean towards the former, citing 'shaken impact syndrome,' which leads detectives to apprehend the 19-year-old British nanny who was responsible for the baby just prior to his passing. The investigation centers on whether the child's death was a deliberate act of murder or an unfortunate incident that transpired while Woodward was caring for him.
