Exclusive: Mom Accused of Murder Speaks Out
When 4-year-old Andrew Burd arrived at a hospital in critical condition in the fall of 2006, doctors didn't have a clue as to what was wrong with him. Blood tests soon revealed that he had salt poisoning, or hypernatremia. Andrew's levels were off the charts -- almost double the norm and among the highest ever recorded.
It WAS reasonable for the cops to suspect Hannah was responsible. But when you look at his eating disorder and the fact that the brusing was caused by the salt poisoning, not by abuse, they should have adjusted their case. Instead, they charged her with capital murder.

The jury was thoroughly poisoned by this systematic misinformation!
