Sally Clarke wrongly convicted of killing her two sons has died at her home

Sally Clark – the solicitor wrongly jailed for murdering her two sons – died yesterday.
Mrs Clark, 42, was jailed in 1999 for killing her 11-week-old son Christopher in December 1996 and eight-week-old Harry in January 1998.
A first appeal against the convictions failed in 2000 but she was freed in 2003 after a fresh appeal. A statement released by the family solicitor said she was found dead at her home on Friday morning.
