First, reports such as this are interesting for a few reasons. First, oftentimes people attack the fact that shaking can cause severe injuries as part of a defense. When an adult admits that he shook a baby, however, albeit after the adult claims the baby was in distress, the ability to challenge that shaking caused the injury becomes muddied. Second, because the timing of injuries in shaken baby and abusive head trauama cases is an area where great attention is focused - it is interesting to see how prosecutors handle timing the inflcition of the injury which admittedly happens but the alleged perpetrator claims it followed a significant event.
