Shaken Baby Syndrome Makes Millions

Junk science and the criminalization of poverty have destroyed so many lives, particularly in a system in which one is guilty until proven innocent.

Once again, this is just anotther example of the criminalizaion of poverty because state laws will prosecute the doctors who are mandated reporters even if it is contrary to the science of their medical profession.

Why?

It is a multi-billion dollar industrial complex and there are no civil rights in child welfare.

In child welfare, organizations advocating for child protection generate millions of dollars every year to lobby for their cause, whether or not that cause is legitimate or not.
