Senior academics write to the NSW attorney-general, calling for early release of Kathleen Folbigg

A group of senior legal academics from New South Wales and Victoria have written to the NSW attorney-general, urging him to immediately release Kathleen Folbigg from prison.

The letter comes just weeks after an inquiry into the case found there is now reasonable doubt in relation to each of Folbigg's convictions.

The NSW woman has spent 20 years in jail after being found guilty of murdering her four children, Caleb, Patrick, Sarah, and Laura, who died separately between 1989 and 1999. They were all under the age of two.
