TL;DR Summary
Kathleen Folbigg, an Australian mother who spent 20 years in prison over the deaths of her four babies, has been pardoned and released after new evidence surfaced that the children died by natural causes. The children's father still believes she is guilty, but the government was convinced by the new evidence. Folbigg's diary entries had led her ex-husband to believe she was guilty, but former Chief Justice Thomas Bathurst concluded that they were the writings of a grieving and possibly depressed mother.
