For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I haven't seen the film but I have researched the case at very great length (assuming the case you are referring to is Lindy
Chamberlain)
The so called "expert evidence" given in this case could only be described as moronic as could the actions off the police.
Now I cant give you my several weeks of searching the internet in one post but let me give you just one example from hundreds.
Tha first cop on the scene decided that a dingo couldn't carry off a 10 pound baby, and how did he come to this conclusion? He put 10 pounds of sand in a plastic bucket, put the handle between his teeth and tried to run the 400 hundred yards to where the dingos tracks and because HE couldn't do it he conluded that a dingo couldn't.
If this moron had rung any university and asked for the Natural History dept he would have been told that dingoes routinely carry off wallaby's that weigh TWICE the amount of Azaria.
If you think this cop is a clown you should look into this, it is priceless, the so called "experts" that gave evidence made this cop look smart by comparison.

Let me give you one more example.
The first "expert" on the stand gave evidence that a dingo couldn't possibly have done it for the following reason:
He produced the skull of a 2 month old baby and the skull of a dingo and then demonstrated to the court that the TOP of the baby's head wouldn't fit into the dogs mouth.
So what? The dog would look into the bassinet (cot) and see a baby's face looking upwards and grab the baby by it's face and throat and that CERTAINLY WILL fit into the dogs mouth.
On the prosecutions side there were one or two points that couldnt be explained but they were not big points and the defendant doesn't have to explain them.
The next "expert" on said, and these are her words not mine, the only way this baby's jump suit could get blood around the neck is if the baby's throat was cut from ear to ear.
Really? Why wouldn't the same thing happen if a dingo sank its powerful jaws into a small baby's face and neck area possibly severing the jugular vein?
The conviction of Lindy Chamberlain was a travesty.

electricblue, i dont think she is innocent because i can't imagine a mother doing that, i made my decision from watching the film and reading various articles over the years. I know mothers can do this but it is difficult to understand. I think even when women hurt children, we find it incomprehensible, take Myra Hindley and the public reaction to her for example, so for mothers to do it, geez, it beggars belief. Fortunately is is very rare.Do you think she was innocent or guilty?
