Kathleen Folbigg

victim Australia

Kathleen Folbigg is an Australian woman who was wrongfully convicted in 2003 for the murders of her four children, spending two decades in prison before being exonerated. Her case drew significant public attention due to the circumstantial nature of the evidence against her, which relied heavily on her diary entries. In 2023, Folbigg is set to receive $2 million from the New South Wales government as compensation for her wrongful imprisonment, a figure that has been criticized by advocates and politicians as insufficient given the profound impact on her life and the loss of her children.
