People Who Were Incarcerated For Crimes They Didn’t Commit

She Was Exonerated But Died A Few Years Later

Clark’s convictions were upheld on appeal in 2000. They were overturned in 2003. It later emerged that her second son, Harry, had died of natural causes. The prosecutor’s pathologist had information gleaned from microbiological reports but did not pass it on during the trial. Clark was released after serving three years in prison. Afterwards, the attorney general started looking into hundreds of other cases. As a result, two other women were set free. Clark was so distressed by everything that happened that she struggled mentally and had problems living a normal life. She passed away in her home in 2007 from alcohol poisoning.
