In this episode, we talk with Matthew Torbenson, a Deputy District Attorney in Milwaukee County and the Team Captain of the Child Protection Advocacy Unit in the District Attorney’s Office. Mr. Torbenson talks about what makes Shaken Baby Syndrome/Abusive Head Trauma cases unique and the comprehensive process his office takes to prepare for SBS/AHT cases. Mr. Torbenson describes the perceived “courtroom controversy” surrounding SBS/AHT cases and what he thinks is important for prosecutors to know when educating jurors and judges on both the science behind SBS/AHT and the teams of professionals who worked together to come to SBS/AHT as the sound medical diagnosis. Brought to you by the National Center on Shaken Baby Syndrome.
