Lindy Chamberlain: The Full Story

by Ken Crispen

Lindy was accused of murdering her own baby. She blamed a dingo (wild dog) for killing the child. The Australian public said Lindy's religion practiced a bizarre form of cultism which drove her to slay her little girl in cold blood. Amid vicious rumors and a black public mood, Lindy Chamberlain was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. The prosecution at her trial offered no eye-witnesses, no body, no confession, and no motive. So why did it take seven years of trials and appeals for Lindy to prove her innocence?
